You can't resize a row and expect the picture size to change. Pictures sit
ontop of the worksheet and is not part of the cell structure. Either you
have to resize the rows before you put the pictures on the worksheet, or
resize the rows after you place the pictures on the worksheet to fit the
picture.

This code came from andrew poulsom at mr excel.com but the site froze so i am
continuing here. Th following does all i ask except the image is still down
to row 4. I only want the image in A1:F1 after i resize and merge that range
to the size I want the image to fit in.

Sub Test()
'***Change to suit
Const PicName As String = "C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Documents\My Pictures\Sample Pictures\Picture1.jpg"
Dim Pic As Object
Set Pic = ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(PicName)
With Pic
.Top = Range("A1").Top
.Left = Range("A1").Left
.Height = Range("A1").RowHeight ', still is down to row 4
.Width = Range("A1:F1").Width
End With
End Sub

thank you
