Thanks Peter - it's helpful just to have confirmation that I should stop
looking for the answer and chalk it up to application builders' oversight. I
can live with that more easily than fretting over the possibility I've just
failed to find the right solution. :)

Me too!
As you say the only way appears to insert a new picture. What you could do
is start by extracting all the properties from the original Picture, in
particular it's dimensions, order-position and name. Insert the new picture
then assign all similar properties including its name (after deleting the
original picture of course).

Thanks Javed. Appreciate the effort to help. The code below adds a new
picture, so there are then two. I already have it solved that way - while
first deleting the one already there. I was hoping to change the image of
an
existing picture.

And I agree, as I looked for a way to "speak" to the existing picture
object, I had a hard time believing it simply didn't exist in the object
model.

Please and thanks!

You can use following:

Worksheets("Sheetname").Pictures.Insert "Filename"

Don't ask me why the pictures object not in Object model of Sheet
object.Ask MS.
