I would like to create a macro that will insert a manually selected
image from specific directory using Excell 2002. In other words I would
like to be able to execute a macro that will take me to a predetermined
directory and will pause for manual selection of an image file. Using
the "Record New Macro" function It is easy to set up a macro that will
insert the same image over and over again.


ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert("\\Fileserver\otprints \ADV03(LFM-0900,C).jpg").
_
Select
End Sub

I'm sure what I am trying to do is more complicated then the simple
macro above.

Can anyone help me out with this?

Thank You,

Paul

This code should give you what you want.


Code:
--------------------
Sub InsertSelectedPicture()
Dim selFile As String
Dim myDir As String
myDir = "\\Fileserver\otprints"
ChDir (myDir)
selFile = Application.GetOpenFilename("JPG Files (*.jpg),*.jpg,All Files (*.*),*.*")
ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert (selFile)
End Sub
--------------------


See VBA help to see the different options for the file filter types
that can be used.
