MRT: You can't have an html file as the source of an image tag - it has to be an image file. I got screen captures of those and changed the image tags in your draft.

Hi Dick -

Under the guise of graphic presentation of data, I tried to sneak in some ncaa basketball, but the links wouldn't show. It's still in draft. Is there some extra magic required? I'd have thought that straight ol' HTML would have worked, as that was what WordPress pasted in.

It may be also that the NYTimes doesn't play nicely with others.

Nope, free version. The first time I did it, I created an swf file on my hard drive and tried to upload that to YouTube. It didn't work. Then I realized/remembered that Jing had it's own online storage thing. Once I signed in to that, it uploaded it automatically and I was able to copy and paste the embed tag and it just worked.

Dick - After a few tries I got Jing to link to my blog by using Vopod. Did you have any problems?

Or did you splash out on the "pro" version?

Dick, I sent a file to Debra that she has posted that is loosely based on yours. I used an array of “completed” numbers and flagged used balls and set up a bingo board instead of the flying balls. You’ll definitely recognize the buttons and routine names, etc.

Sub MaybeNotSoBadBingo()
'Int((upperbound - lowerbound + 1) * Rnd + lowerbound) - Excel Help
Dim X(4) As Variant, I As Long
Dim aVal As Long
For I = 0 To 4: X(I) = 0: Next I
For I = 1 To 10000
' aVal = Rnd() * (4 - 0) + 0
aVal = Int(Rnd * (4 - 0 + 1) + 0)
X(aVal) = X(aVal) + 1
Next I
Debug.Print Join(X, ",")
End Sub
'
Runs very close to 2000 in each element.

I like Jing, now I can post my Newton’s Cradle animation on my blog.

But that prompts the question, is there a way to save an Excel animation directly to a file, without going through a screen capture program?
