I searched for a code to add pictures to comments with VBA.
I only found this:
im using comments to display images for easy look up
when i save a picture i want it to be that size when i hovver over the comment
but when i insert the picture it doesnt open the size that i saved it as
i manually have to resize the image so its legible
why is this and is there a way round this?
My pictures are numbered picture1.jpg, picture2.jpg, picture 3.jpg..etc
in the pictures file under documents. My items are in column "A" . What I want to do is asign picture1 to cell A1, Picture2 to "A2", in the comment section and continue the loop until all have pictures
I am doing up a spreadsheet for work. I have a master sheet which has important 'feeder' info on it. I also have 6 other sheets where the code will reference.
Here is the Data Entry sheet setup.
ColK --> Contains numbers starting in row 2 and ending in row 116 atm, could expand but no further than 500
ColL --> Same as above but with different numbers
ColM --> contains formulas which produce the sheet name that the data in ColK and ColL is related to (6 sheets)
----------
I require some code that will look at each row from 2 to 500 in ColM for something other than "out of range" or nothing (the "out of range" or empty ones should be ignored), and for each relevant row it should identify the sheet name in ColM and then identify the cell that is at the cross reference of the 2 numbers from ColK and ColL and then insert a picture at that cell. Each sheet (the 6 of them) has numbers in ColA from A2 and Row1 from B1. The numbers will exact match those from ColK and ColL from the Data Entry Sheet.
I tried to show pictures according to numbers code in my list on the sheet 2, during the xploring of web i saw some examples with vlookup and data validation functions.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an workbook with pictures that are linked to external picture files, and they are placed in the workbook via macro. When I email the file to another computer and open it, the pics do not display and show an error:
The linked image cannot be displayed. The file may have been moved, renamed, or deleted, Verify that the link points to the correct file and location.
I would like to be able to save the workbook with the pictures in them (without having to archive them) so that I can open it and see them on another machine.
I've used VBA to make a picture appear when all the correct answers have been entered and it all works well. However, not to be too mean to 15 year olds, many of my students can be devious little feckers, and I want to hide and password protect the VBA code so that they can't just change the pictures visible section to true. I can password protect the workbook and worksheet, but not the VBA.
I'm entering the Visual Basic editor and I can see my simple script. I then click Tools - VBproject properties - protection. I'm clicking the "Lock Project for Viewing" box then filling in the password and confirming the password and clicking OK. But I can still see and edit my script, despite protecting the sheet and workbook.
I have a worksheet that has user fillable cells from B11-AR53. I want the user to be able to attach comments to cells and then to be able to print them on secondary sheet. I know that excel already can perform this function, but it references the cell address and I don't like that method. I want to have the comments on the printout indexed and tied to an index number in the cell. Creating another worksheet with the comments only is perfectly fine. I am currently using this formula (below) to index the comments on the worksheet that they are attached to.
Ideally my report/second worksheet would list-
1 - Comment that is indexed as 1 would be here
2 - Comment that is indexed as 2 would be here
....and so forth
Sub CoverCommentIndicator()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim cmt As Comment
Dim lCmt As Long
Dim rngCmt As Range
Dim shpCmt As Shape

Does anyone know code to bring up a comments box automatically when a certain word is entered into a cell? I have an If statement but I just don’t know how to open a comments box in the same cell.

Basically the comment would read "2+4+5+6" or "2,4,5,6" or something along that.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAmong many attempts to insert and autosize a comment using VBA manually, which errored, i recorded the following bit. When running the macro, it does format the cell - text, not the comment - text and errors in the line highlighted in red.
Range("A14").Select
Range("A14").AddComment
Range("A14").Comment.Visible = False
Range("A14").Comment.Text Text:="Ladida"
With Selection
.HorizontalAlignment = xlLeft
.VerticalAlignment = xlTop
.ReadingOrder = xlContext
.Orientation = xlHorizontal
.AutoSize = True
End With
I just want to add
.AutoSize = True
or something to that effect to the bit below. Any suggestions?
Range("A14").Comment.Text "Ladida"
How would you prevent the copy/paste of cells that have comments?
Also, how would you allow cells with comments to be copied and pasted without pasting the comments?
I also have an aside question about the forum advanced search. When searching for multiple search words, how would you type the search to include all words, for example, "prevent" & "paste" & "comments".
I have grouping setup in my excel spread sheet.
1. I added pictures(print screen-->mspaint-->cut existing part of the image-->paste into excel. In excel they are called "Pictures 01 thru Picture X" with the pull points all around.
2. I located them in specific cells of the grouped type with the (-) sign appears so the group of cells are in use
3. When I close the Group(+) of cells all the pictures are jumbled above the closed cells.
Question: Is there away to keep these pictures within those cells when closing the group, so they will not been see as well?
is you had two ratings, one bad, one good, could you make a differant picture show up for the differant ratings using an IF function or simmiler fuctions (So like if a 'dance rating' is bad if it is under 13 and is good over 13 then have a picture of John Travolta for good and a picture of a hippo for bad as a bit of a joke on a identinty card sort of thing)?
I know quite alot about exel and have tried to make my formular but as it is saved on the school server i can not acsess it until tomorrow but i will try and make that work and post it if it dose
Is there a way to write code to delete all the pictures on a worksheet called "Pictures"?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have imported and deleted several pictures into my worksheet. I want to re- name or re-order my pictures. Right now, a new pictures is name "picture 4" when there might only be two pictures in the sheet. I want to rename to say "picture 2" as I have a macro that calls for "picture 2" I know this should be simple, but I don't know how to do this.

The pictures are just images I Inserted into the first cells.
since my pc has updated to ie7 all pictures that I open via hyperlinks from excel now open in and internet explorer window instead of windows picture & fax viewer as JPEG's are set to.
If I open the JPEG files directly they open with the correct program.
I'm sure it must be a setting somewhere but I cant find it.
Is it possible to show pictures with a combo box instead of using data validation list.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet into which have been imported a number of pictures, The pictures have all been imported and sized to appear to fit into cells. I have a program which deletes all of the pictures in one go but I would like to be able to just delete all those in one row.

What I have tried is:
I am absolutely new to visual basic thing but have a good idea of what I am doing in excel. I have seen some code to delete pics but can't figure out what it is that I am suppose to do. What I am doing is coping and pasting something from the internet. I do not need any of the pics that are pasted into the worksheet and am tired of deleting them individualy.

The issue:
I am trying to show a picture based on the inputs in the cells above. Basically the picture in cell A28 is referenced by the information in cell AI7. The picture in cell D28 should be referenced by the information in cell AI8 and so on.
The problem is that when I enter the code to insert multiple pictures, it comes up with errors.
I'm hoping this is just my lack of programming knowledge and this is an easy fix. Please tell me where I am going wrong.
Also, will there be an issue if I reference the same picture multiple times?
I discovered this sample database sheet (attached) on the forum I wanted to ask if a picture can be linked included? i.e. when entering a new record a picture (stored in a directory) can be added and linked to that record. Then when reviewing the records the picture is then displayed.
