Set focus on graphic inserted in worksheet
I have a macro that stacks pictures below each other. The
problem I have is once the pictures extend beyond the activewindow area I can't figure a way of getting the screen to scroll or jump to place the most recently added picture in focus. I don't want the screen to jump each time an image is added but only "page" down when the most recent images bottom extends past the view window area. I have been messing around with determining the row and column reference for the image that was added but I can't seem to determine whether the image is off the screen. I am inserting the images into column A and to top things off I have merged all the cells in column A so that the individual cells cannot be selected. The following doesn't seem to work because I have merged column A. CurrRow = ActiveSheet.Shapes("Component1").TopLeftCell.Row ActiveSheet.Cells(CurrRow, 1).Select Application.Goto Reference:=Range(ActiveCell.Address), Scroll:=True |

The obvious answer is to unmerge column A.
If you don't want the users to select things on the sheet, lock the cells, protect the sheet and set the EnableSelection property. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "David Cuthill" wrote in message ...

That's to easy.
It's alway interesting when I miss the obvious. Thanks for the help. -----Original Message----- The obvious answer is to unmerge column A.

Note that the enableselection property is "transient" and you need to set it
each time the workbook is opened - you can do this in the workbook_open event. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "David Cuthill" wrote in message ... That's to easy.
