Explored a few posts on my topic, but didn't quite find what I needed.
I need to open the Insert Picture dialog with it pointed at C:My DocumentsTemp. (Users will be required to save their images files to this location only).
Attempted to run a macro to get the code, but the dialog box forces you to select a file. I only need to get some low skilled users to the folder and let them select the image to insert.
I am putting together a price list in excel and using images and hyperlinks to jazz it up a bit - what I am finding is that if I insert a 25KB GIF image, the excel file grows in size by over 100KB
why is this disproportionate growth happening and is there a way around it - I dont want my Price List growing too large but need the images....?
I had copied a macro from this forum [it was posted by either shg or NBVC], and I modified it to fit my needs. The macro creates a new word document and sends a series of cells from an excel worksheet column to this word file. Everything works fine, but now I need to insert a picture after row 14. I have inserted the code [colored red], but I am sure the syntax or something isn't right. That part doesn't work.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWorkbook Password Protect 2 Levels. I have managed to write simple but effective code that allows only one password to be enetered to open a SS & offers 3 levels of protection, limited permission to enter data, read-only & data completely hidden. This is excellent for my needs however I want the user who has limited rw to be able to insert a pic file which is their signature but because the sheet has protected cells it won't allow user to insert picture jpg file.
I have just thought of a creative solution tho. What if the picture file is already saved in the workbook and by using code to ask to insert pic file it copies from one location in SS to the appropriate cell in the worksheets?
The scenario is that I have fortnightly timesheets in 12 calendar months in 12 separate sheets. When staff member fills in timesheet I want them to insert signature for that f/night indicating thatthey have filled it in & it is correct but because of protection it won't allow me to.
is it possible to configure Excel in order to save the Hyperlink path for a file with absolute path and non relative?
I notice that the hyperlink is ....pdf ry.pdf
if I change the position of the file excel there is a problem!
I would like to save es. d:invoichepdf ry.pdf
I have a variable ("DestFile") that defines a path to a file (used in saving the file)...
I'm in the process of getting a Sub to hyperlink to this file, but in some circumstances, I may only want to hyperlink to the folder, not the actual file...
How would I go about trimming the "DestFile" address to get a "DestFldr" address?...
An example of "DestFile" might be;
S:BryanFor KenGulf ConstructionST0609014-t.xls
(the file name length may vary)
What code can I use to consistently trim it back to;
S:BryanFor KenGulf Construction
as the "DestFldr" variable?
I want to run a macro to separate File Name and Path from the given complete path

In Column C :File Path = C:MainFolderRecordsSubFilesFile1

How to save a file, with file- name. but the directory is to be read in worksheet "towns" in Cell1 (brussels) and filename in worksheet "names" in cell B2 (i.e. winter), so it saves to c:russelswinter.txt as a wordpad or kladblok txt file, that keeps a number, so each time we push a button "go back from worksheet names to worksheet towns" the "number" that is saved in the txt document goes up by value +1. In Flemisch, the "old" code goes as follows, and saves the number in the txt file Factuurnummer7.txt. But I want that the file name (here: FactuurNummer7) can be a variable text issue, which has to be read - as already noticed - in cell B2 (with the word WINTER). So the are 2 worksheets: towns, ans names

Below is the current code I have for File Copy before the workbook closes. This file will be distributed all over and obviously will not have the same old path and new path locations as I have in my code also will not have the same file name. Is there anyway to still perform the file copy without knowing the old path and file name and possibly have message box pop up to ask the copy to location and use that in the new path string?
Sub Macro1()
Dim fs As Object
Dim oldPath As String, newPath As String
oldPath = "I:EXLDATAMC Daily" '<---Where the file is currently located
newPath = "H:South RegionOrlando Mail Services2008DI" 'Since the super shared drive is super slow we will just copy and replace this file each time before we close and of course after we save
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
fs.CopyFile oldPath & "" & "OrlandoMail.xls", newPath & "" & "OrlandoMail.xls"
Set fs = Nothing
End Sub
I record a macro in Excel 2007 to insert a picture from a file in the active sheet, but when I stop recording it and I went so see the code and there was no code!!!
I did the same in Excel 2003 and the code was like this:
ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert("c:1.jpg").Select
The code below will enable you to browse for a picture and insert it at cell location O9. It works great in excel '03 but when sub is ran in '07 it places the picture at about cell D5 and not really even lined up perfectly with that cell. Does any one have any idea why this is happening and how to make the sub work correctly in '07?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a approximately 17 workbooks, all with multiple worksheets within. I have a logo that I now want to add to each worksheet in every book.
What I would like to do is the following, on each worksheet.
Add 13 rows starting from the top A1 (this is to make room for a logo I want to add)Add the logo JPG file (which covers the range A1:F13) . This will be the same picture for all sheets. The picture properties should be "Locked" and "Don't move or size with cells". The path of where my logo is stored is C:UsersGrantDropboxEffExAdminLogosEffEx_logo-05Then select the entire contents of the workbook and uncheck "Locked" from the format control.Then apply protection (which leaves the picture locked) but allowing selection, inserting and formatting of rows/columns.
This will allow the users to still format columns and rows eg. autofit columns, but they cannot select and delete the logo.
I have tried using the Macro Recorder but when I select all sheets, I see that it records the actual sheet names and so this will obviously not work for when applying to other workbooks. Also, it did not record any of the Protection commands which I did.
how I can do this?
I am using the code below to insert and resize images in excel. I was wondering is it possible to set up this macro so that I can just provide the directory and then have it so that just a random image is inserted rather than specifying an jpg number. The reason i need this is because the numbers in the folder range from 00000 to upto 20000 however not every folder has the full range of images i.e. Z:SingaporeSingapore TurfSingapore Turf Club 2QEII Cup 2006QEII Cup 2006_VDMillenium Copthorne InternationalTVGI Race Name Text may just contain one image and that would be image number 03965.
The other thing I would like to do is to have the name of the las 2 subfolders inserted into the cell above the image so for the example below you would have:
Millenium Copthorne InternationalTVGI Race Name Text
Picture
Millenium Copthorne InternationalTVGI Race Name Logo
Picture
Sub TestInsertPictureInRange()

I have multiple merged cells (all same size). But not all in the same place.
I'm looking for a macro that can insert a picture in a selected merged cells and also size it to the merged cells.
I want to be able to choose a different picture from a location, for examle to network map P:.
I looked around but couldn't fins a code for this.
I have a sheet where I would like to have a picture inserted in a particular cell range and auto resized into that range. What I'm looking for is, if I type the name of a picture (meathead4uu.jpg) in a cell (Say, B3) then the picture should appear in range D14 to E28.

getting full file path from selected input file?
I have a macro with text box and browse button.
User can click on browse button and it will allow them to select only text files.
Now for further processing I need to get the file path and file name in 2 different variables.
Like if user selected C:/Temp/Test.txt
Variable 1 should have C:/Temp
Varialble 2 should have Test.txt
I just found a code to copy file path and file contents. However it is copying folder path and folder contents.here is my requirement.I will specify a path, macro has to copy that file name in a particular cell, then it has to copy all its contents.
ex:
file name 1 has 3 sub files in it, file name 2 has 2 sub files in it--
column AColumn B
file name1file contents
file name1file contents
file name1file contents
file name2file contents
file name2file contents
And also i have extend this macro to write a index function. i will tell u about this. but first i need above thing I researched but I didn't find.
I need file name in a column then i need file contents in b column.
if a file has 10 file contents in a file then that file name should come 10 times in a column, and in b column all its contents.
Can I have a picture appear next to what is typed in the cell next to it.

I have all the pictures of the words in my drop down list.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a table in a worksheet. Every time the user double-clicks on one of the cells containing the names for each of the listed items, a userform pops up displaying information about that item. Besides other controls, this userform has an Image Box, that displays a picture of the item, and a Multipage.
What I want to do is to display the same picture shown by the Image Box, on to the Multipage, using the same file, but, and here's the quirk, aditionally, change it's size, turn it monochrome, and set its transparency to a different value.
I've attached an example of the final look I'm seeking. This was done by prior editing of a copy of the image and inserting it using LoadPicture, but this solution is too troublesome as this is done solely for aesthetical purposes, thus not justifying all the hassle a user has to go through everytime he wishes to add a new item to the table.
