Hi folks!

I stumbled across this:http://www.contextures.on.ca/ShowFilePicsDemo.zip

Which will allow you to insert graphics into a defined area based on
data from a drop-down box. (I'm using Excel 2003)

I would REALLY like to get this to work with my current project, but
my drop-down list and graphics are on two separate worksheets in the
same file.

Can anyone offer some VBA advice on how to make this happen? I
understand it on a kindergarten level. ;)

Many thanks!!!
Craig

Hi Craig,

I downloaded the link then did the following to get the picture
displayed on a different sheet...

1. Inserted a new sheet which was automatically named Sheet1.
2. Went Insert|Name|Define... to bring up the Define Name dialog.
3. Clicked on rngPicDisplayCells in the list of defined names. The
refers to: box then showed the formula...

=ShowFilePicsDemo!$D$6:$D$10

which I changed to...

=Sheet1!$D$6:$D$10

so that the picture would appear on the new sheet, Sheet1, at the same
location ($D$6:$D$10).

After making that change to the Refers to: formula for
rngPicDisplayCells, I then clicked the Add button then OK.

4. I then right clicked the ShowFilePicsDemo sheet tab and selected
View code from the pop up to get into that worksheet's code module.
In the code module I changed the following line...

rDestCells:=Range("rngPicDisplayCells"), _

to...

rDestCells:=Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("rngPicDisp layCells"), _

5. Saved the changes then exited the VBA Editor.

After those changes were made the picture whose name was selected from
the drop down on the ShowFilePicsDemo sheet appeared in $D$6:$D$10 on
Sheet1.
