To have a picture show up based on VLOOKUP when you select an item
from a DV list or type in a name see JE MCGimpsey's site.

As written John's code allows for only one picture to be displayed and
the pictures must be stored and hidden on the same worksheet as the
VLOOKUP formula.

But that will pose no problem...........simply cut and paste the
shapes to the sheet in which you want them to be displayed.

Or you need multiple pictures shown from VLOOKUPS.............

Got to Debra Dalgeish's site for a sample workbook from Bernie
Dietrick for adding pictures via selections.

Allows for more than one picture to be displayed on a sheet but also
requires the pictures be stored on same sheet.

I need a vba in Excel 2007 that once I drag a jpeg picture from a

excluding the extension, the typed filename has to be readable by
vlookup this project is for creating a excel based catalogue which
will have approx 9 to 12 pictures per standard sheet this project idea
is very classic which I believe it is already done
