Delete Picture Objects
 
How can I select all the picture objects in my excel file and delete them?
I've tried highlighting the column but that doesn't work.

Thanks Mike

Try this one

Sub Shapes2()
'Loop through the Shapes collection and use the Type number of the control
Dim myshape As Shape
For Each myshape In ActiveSheet.Shapes

' pictures
If myshape.Type = 13 Then myshape.Delete
' You can also use myshape.Visible = False

Next myshape
End Sub

It worked on a picture I've inserted into the execl spreadsheet but not on
what I pasted into the spreadsheet. I'm pasting from the internet and it
puts the little Java Icon on the spreadsheet. I click on the Icon and it
says it's a picture. Maybe it's a different type?

Do you have other controls on that sheet Mike that you want to keep ?
Forms controls or controltoolbox controls ?
