Hello,
I'm currently working on a spreadsheet, and I need three pictures in the header. However, I can't find how to do this in Excel 2016. Did Microsoft remove the option? Does anybody know how to do this?
It's funny because I opened a previous version created in Excel 2011, and it shows the picture and then Excel crashes.
Thank you in advance for your answers

The ability to insert images in the header and footer has now been solved by Microsoft in Excel version 15.36. And about time. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_officeinsider-mso_mac/excel-for-mac-insert-pictures-in-headers-footers/b5bc467a-7189-4bf6-be3d-c1a0c928249f
We recently upgraded from Excel 2011 for Mac to Excel 2016 for Mac; we are on Version 15.26. Now anytime I open Headers through Page Setup on an existing file (for example, a file for which I may want to update a date or title that is in the header), the program crashes. I see that this has been identified before by other users. What is the workaround, besides emailing the file back and forth between computers with older versions to work on it? When will the functionality be restored? Do I need to get rid of 2016 and go back to 2011? VERY FRUSTRATING!!!
Microsoft has a lot of fixes on hold for the time being.
An update currently being tested by the Insider Fast members is now 64-bit. I think this is one of the most important updates to Office for Mac in a decade and it is a huge undertaking. I think once the kinks of the 64-bit transition are worked out they will get busy on the backlog of things that need attention.
Looks to me like this is a Microsoft marketing tactic that is being done on purpose. If they don't include key features in their Mac versions of Office it could sway people to use the Windows OS instead of Mac. Personally if this is how Microsoft treats its customers then I think it just might be time to abandon Office all together and standerdize on Mac applications!
Microsoft is still thinking about whether or not to repair this broken feature.
