I have a workbook containing a picture. How can I save that individual
picture as a bitmap or jpeg or other image file as I want to use it
elsewhere as a background for an Access from?

Many thanks......Jason

Copy the picture.

Open up your favourite graphics program(MSPaint?) and paste then save as.

Or did you mean do all through code?

Turn on the macro recorder if that's the case.

Some versions of excel (xl2002+, IIRC) allow you to save the workbook as an HTML
file. If you save a copy, you'll find another folder under the folder that
contains your .html document. This subfolder will contain the pictures (among
other stuff) that you included in the document.

This may not be worth it for just one picture. I'd use Gord's technique.
