Here is a tested version. It is unclear if your button is on Main or
another sheet, but with this addition, it should work in either case.
Change the name of the picture to match yours. If you are using xl97 or
someone using xl97 will use you workbook, in the properties for the
commandbutton, change the takefocusonclick property to false.

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim sPic As String
Dim obj As Object

For Each obj In Worksheets("Main").Pictures
If obj.TopLeftCell.Address = "$D$16" Then
obj.Delete
Exit For
End If
Next
sPic = ("C:\WINDOWS\Blue Rivets.bmp")
Sheets("Main").Select
Sheets("Main").Range("D16").Select
ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert sPic

End Sub

Richard,

Just posted this to the other message

How about another approach?

What you could do is to load all of the pictures up front, and [park them
off-view. Each command button would move
back to the park, and then bring in the required one.

Dim sh As Shape

Fr Each sh In ActiveSheet.Shapes
'first make sure all parked
sh.Left = 5000
Next sh

With ActiveSheet.Shapes("picCB1")
.Left = 100
.Top = 100
End With

and similar code for each CB.

One way to implement persistence across VBA resetting global variables
is with your own names. Something like the code below, which names the
inserted object with a unique custom name. If you want to save the
information in a cell, save the object's name, not the name of the file
used to create the object.

Option Explicit
Sub addAPic(whatPic As String)
Dim x As Picture
On Error Resume Next
ActiveSheet.Shapes("_TMPic").Delete
On Error GoTo 0
Set x = ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(whatPic)
x.Name = "_TMPic"
End Sub
Sub Add1()
addAPic "C:\pic1.jpg"
End Sub
Sub Add2()
addAPic "C:\pic2.jpg"
End Sub
