I'm trying to get a gif file in my report that is being saved into excel format. If I open it in HTML the link I have in the report will work but then when I save it as excel it will no longer work. OK my intern has gotten that part done but now our logo gif will not show up. Instead we are getting the lovely white square with the red X in it. Please let me know what I may need to change. I currently have the GIF file in the same folder as the fex.

Thank you,
Ana

In version 5.3.2, I have found that embedding an image in the heading of an Excel 2000 COMPOUND report will not work - it shows the missing image icon. Is your report a COMPOUND Excel 2000 (EXL2K) report?

I was able to figure this one out... Smiler
I placed the path in the image= section towards the bottom of the code and it is now working.

Thank you,
Ana

Ana,

Would you post your code, so others can learn from what you did?

Thanks.
Greg
