Background images won't show when exporting to Excel

Hello there,
I have a table with several cells that contain a value. Also for those cells
there's a specific background image, which is displayed depending on the
value contained (displayed) in the cell. Everything works fine, but when I
export the report to excel the background image is not displayed, only the
value.
Is there any way to achieve this ? (display and background image along with
the value?)
Is this a Excel's limitation or is it Reporting Services' ?
Is there any work around ?
Will the RS SP2 add this feature ?
Thanks in advance
CesarCesar;
this is an Excel limitation and backgroup images are not supported.
Unfortunatelly, there is no work around I am aware of.

background images and external URLs sorting problem

I have created a report which uses an external .bmp accessed through a URL as
the background image of the header (i.e. to brand the report with the company
logo).
this works fine until I use the interactive sort function which causes the
image to disappear. refreshing the report brings back the image, but resets
the sort.
Does anybody know of any way to make the image reappear after using the sort?
thanks in advance!

BLVI have exactly the same problem. Have you managed to solve it in the mean
time?
