Parameters

You may also call the formula with just the RunRefresh parameter to refresh all types.
Example
You can setup a named image by inserting a picture using the standard Excel menu option.
Next set the Picture name by right-clicking it, and selecting properties. The name goes in the "Alt Text" box.
Finally set up a formula, e.g.
=XL3DynamicPicture("MyLogo"; "http://www.example.com/logo.jpg")
Here the Url paramater is fixed, but it could be set to reference another cell or concatenated text.
