Linking to remote directory of photos
I have played a little with the McGimpsey suggestion for inserting a picture
into a cell. The below code allows a picture to locate itself into the top corner of cell AH33. The pic width and column width fits the picture into the cell. It would be better if the picture zoomed to fit the cell rather than me setting limits. Suggestions??? Secondly, this code requires the picture to be placed into the document itself. With hundred of pictures the file size is excessive. I want to hold all the photos in a remote directory and link to them. How do I do that???? Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate() Dim oPic As Picture Me.Pictures.Visible = False With Range("AH33") For Each oPic In Me.Pictures If oPic.Name = .Text Then oPic.Visible = True oPic.Top = .Top oPic.Left = .Left oPic.Width = .ColumnWidth * 90 oPic.Height = .RowHeight * 13 Exit For End If Next oPic End With End Sub |

Create a macro that asks the user to select the picture and then load it.

Linking to remote directory of photos
that might be possible, but the intention is that what ever code is in a
neighbouring cell would automatically pull the photo from the directory. thus...=g:\shared\data\photo\[ &A5&.jpg] The VBA code would then be required to manipulate the phot to fit the cell. Note that cell a5 would itself be calling for data from a file in another directory. This information would be the filename of the photo "Gary''s Student" wrote: Create a macro that asks the user to select the picture and then load it. -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200826 "Stevep4" wrote: I have played a little with the McGimpsey suggestion for inserting a picture into a cell.
