What I've done in such cases is to include a mergefield with just the
filename of the photo, which is stored elsewhere. Then I use an
IncludePicture field with the full path of the folder where the folders are
stored, using the merge field as the last portion of that path. If the photo
itself is actually stored in Excel (is that possible?), then a mergefield
referencing that field should bring in the photo.
