How do I place a .jpg image in an Excel comment?

I want to place a .jpg image in an Excel spreadsheet so the image shows only
when a cursor goes over the image. Any ideas of how to do this?

Peo,

That is EXACTLY what I was looking for! Thanks to both you and to Mary. It
certainly was not intuitively obvious...

Appreciate it,

The DD method below does not work in Excel 2002 and above, since the only
formatting available is Font. This method sets the image as a background
for the comment

Only problem is that the image does not print out with the comments. Anyone
know how to print the comments with the shape object intact, or paste the
image otherwise so it will print?

Thanks

Sorry, didn't meant to sound that rude, it works and I have no clues what
you mean with
