How to insert a picture in header or footer in Excel 2016?

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

William

    Dear James,

    do we have an update for this? in 15.18 it still is not reenabled and super frustrating as it makes using Excel 2016 for corporate documents very tedious. The work around is to minimise the header and manually copy the logo onto each sheet. Really? is that the best we get in 2016 for the annual subscription we pay?

    Please ensure that this is added to the to-solve list for the next update!

    Thank you,

    Daniel

    Have you tried creating, or changing Logo in 2011.  And then Opening in 2016. If you're like me you'll keep 2011 to get real work done. Until they get 2016 fixed in 3-4 or 5-10 years.
