Ok, this is a little complicated, so feel free to email me if unclear
ok...
First... Open Excel, and right click on any toolbar, and select
customise, you should be on the commands tab, if not please select it
Then select Tools on the left, and scroll down until you find the one
called "Camera" and has a little camera icon (it's a little over half
way down)... Drag and drop this back to the tool bar
Now go to the work sheet and select the cells that you want to copy...
then click the camera and then anywhere else on the worksheet, hold
click drag and release... You should now have a picture perfect image
of what you want...
Two things you should know...
1) This will always update the image depending on the cells (try it,
it's really funky to see)
2) If you need to take it to a word document or powerpoint or
something, you will need to cut and paste it, but it always comes out
perfect (but this fix it to a static picture file and not dynamic like
the first one)
Hope this helps you

Hi vitruvian,
The method I described allows you to paste the picture as a link also.
As for other apps (eg Word), you can paste the range in various formats, including as a picture or worksheet object, via Edit|Paste
Special, with or without a link to the source.
Cheers
