Hello

Example:

Code: Select all

var
  Pict: TMSOPicture;
begin
  Pict := XLS.MSOPictures.Add;
  // The last parameter is the picture type. 
  // As there id no file extension when reading from a stream
  // you must tell the picture type.
  Pict.LoadFromStream(MyStream,'UniquePictureName',msoblipPNG);
end;

I've never worked with streams, so I need a little help here on how to initiate from a standard TTable or TdataSet.

Thanks in Advance...

Hello

Using streams is a very basic thing in delphi. Please ask such questions in a general forum such as Stackoverflow.
