reading a string in a png image file
I have no idea where to start with trying to figure this out so ...
I am using the dos copy /b function to append two files together (a png file and a text file). The text file contains some information relative to the png file (sort of like metadata I guess). I need to run a macro that inserts the png file into a worksheet (which i already can do) that also scans the png file for the appended data contained in the text file and places it in predetermined cells on the worksheet. If someone could please point me in the right direction. Thanks |

reading a string in a png image file
Hi
You can't read the info from the text file? Lot's of items to search through on extracting from a text file and putting into excel. regards Paul On Mar 18, 8:50*pm, wrote: I have no idea where to start with trying to figure this out so ...

reading a string in a png image file
I only want to keep track of one file and not worry that the 2 files
are always in the correct location. The appended png file will be sent to others to use. Everything I found seems to be looking at the file in lines and the png file does not seem to have any carriage returns like a text file - maybe i'm not searching on the correct terms.
