1) Carefully!!! :) VB might be able to read the code but it will not be able to interpret it. It will just think it is a string. Then depending upon how you coded it in excel and what you coded in excel, you might be able to just cut-n-paste with very little modification.

3) VB can display a lot of different graphic formats and with some code and API you can increase the amount of formats it can handle. Then with either some built in functions or through the use of API's you can manipulate those graphics. Now, from the sounds of it you might want to look up some game tutorials as they do deal with some of those API's and graphics.

Good Luck
