My boss emailed me a Power Point to use in developing an Excel spreadsheet. As a reference to the original Power Point, I want to copy the Power Point "icon" into the Excel spreadsheet so that when the boss is viewing the spreadsheet she can click on the Power Point and open it from there to see the supporting detail. Is there a way to do this? I haven't been able to "copy" the Power Point icon and paste it into the Excel spreadsheet. (Excel 2002) Thanks

The way I do it is

In Excel
Click on Insert then Object
Choose the create from file tab
Use the browse to find the file
Click in the box "Display as Icon"
Click OK

This should do it
