Hi there, I have a list of 200 12 digit number in an excel spread sheet. i need to watermark each of the numbers onto 200 of the same image in batch. Is this possible? cheers

This cannot be done with any of the standard features of Irfanview. The Batch feature is designed to put the same text onto multiple images not the other way around.
You can run the Batch feature 200 times with different settings each time using a Batch script to call the Command line with the /advancedbatch option, but you would first need to create 200 ini files with different "Addtext=" entries in each, or write script to read the text entries (perhaps from a .csv file exported from Excel) and then modify the .ini file that Irfanview was using on-the-fly between each call of the Command line. IMHO hardly worth the effort involved.
If you cannot find another program to do it I would suggest that you look into setting up a workflow using Irfanview to do the job manually, copy and pasting the text entry from Excel into the Insert text dialog and saving the result for each one. Using shortcut keys such as Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Shift+R, Ctrl+T, S, etc. you may be quite surprised how quickly you can complete 200 operations.
