First of all, I would like to thank all Excel Forum Moderators and Members especially Andy Pope for the great effort they exert to help all members.
Lately, I viewed the thread available on the following link and I admired the great perfect work and codes provided by Andy Pope so much,
http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...-userform.html
My request is similar to the points discussed in the above mentioned thread, but, it is a little bit different ..
Instead of inserting the picture to the worksheet, I want the picture to be copied from one folder on the HD to another folder called (Employees photos), which is located in workbook's path.
In other words, I need a code to copy one jpg picture from one location to another.
I would like a macro that would analyze a range (H15:GI15) to see if they contain FH, FS, FB, FR, or FC and if they do, copy the related picture associated with the 5 variables and paste it in the cell.
I did this code and it worked, but the code is very long. Another problem I have is there needs to be a way to delete the existing pictures before the code runs too. Because the cells may change and the button that runs the macro would be labeled "update" or something to that effect. I don't really need it to run everytime the cell is updated, just when the "update" button is pushed.
I’m trying to copy a chart as a Picture but when I select Shift Edit as Jon Pelltier suggests at http://peltiertech.com/Excel/XL_PPT.html
In the Copy Picture dialog box it doesn’t appear the “Format” option (to enable Picture copy).
Why is this happening?.
Currently using Excel XP.
I'm trying to copy a picture from one Worksheet to another and then resize it, when i select the picture after pasting it into the other worksheet i use the code ActiveSheet.Shapes("Picture 6").Select, the problem here is that i don't know the name of the picture because i use a loop that copys alot of pictures.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make an Excel sheet with a frontpage sheet and a data sheet. In the data sheet I have several columns with data and then in the end a cloumn with pictures. On the front page sheet I can easily with VLOOKUP formulas transfer the desired data from the data sheet to the front page sheet but I cannot seem to figure out how to copy the picture. When I try to copy the cell with the picture in it, the formula only copies the cell value, which is "0" because the only thing which is in the cell is the picture. how to copy a given picture from one sheet to another based on the information in another cell like a "Vlookup" formula?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a tab with several small tables (Column E-G). What I need to do is to copy them as pictures, move them to another tab, change the picture size, and align them in the new tab.
The data set is huge and it would involve lots of labor if copy and paste one by one. Is there any way to do it using a macro? I tried to record a macro, but it doesn't work. It will not change the size of the picture and I don't know how to tell Excel to align them the way I want.
I have a not too big catalog in Excel format (2010). Each row has a picture. Now, I need to generate sales report. Some items do not sell. For report purpose, I want to delete those rows along with the pictures. Possible to do so? I did an Internet search and found that drawing objects are not bonded to a row or a cell. Seems to me I cannot selectively delete picture in a particular row. True?

View 7 Replies View RelatedIn Excel 2010, is there any way to paste a picture into a small picture/diagram box, and upon double clicking the picture it would explode to a larger size? And I guess double clicking it again would make it return to its original (smaller) size. I would be pasting several pictures into several different picture/diagram boxes and would need this to be a relative reference so that upon selection it explodes the appropriate picture?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI work as a data administrator in a high school in England. I've only been doing the job for about 8 months but a lot of the processes we go through could be better automated via the use of macros in Excel and Word.
Basically we have school grade reports that come from our MIS database that are stored as a Word template, which are then exported into Word as an .xml file. However, they don't come with the photographs of the students on the reports, so we have a Word List Report with every student photo (split into year groups) and run the following macro, which allows you to pick a folder where the reports are stored and match the photo to the report via the school admission number. It is then inserted into the report using a Word bookmark to place it in the top left corner.
VB:
Sub InsertPhoto()
Dim myFile, myFileNewName As String
Dim PathToUse As String [code]....
This works fine but I would like to be able to automatically format the photos so that they have 'In Front Of Text' wrapping, which we need to keep the templates from messing up. It would also save me accessing nearly 1000 school reports and manually editing each photo.
I have a picture on sheet 2. When I enter the text "htfo" without the quotes into cells a1 on sheet 1 , i would like the picture to be displayed for 5 seconds and then exit the picture and return me to sheet 1.

I am constantly using this function to copy charts from Excel into PowerPoint presentations and am frustrated with all the extra steps it takes (versus just Ctrl-C).
Recently, when trying to copy and paste portions of excel worksheets, I've been getting the message: The picture is too large and will be truncated.
I have copied and pasted this same way for years and the problem has just arisen over the past month. An excel issue or possibly something else and just getting the message with Excel since it's the software I'm using 90% of every day?
My files are stored on a network drive, not my hard drive.
I need to start with a worksheet without any objects, namely pictures. Without knowing the name of the object, is there a way to clear all objects on a worksheet?
Second: on a different worksheet there are products with pictures with the product number. When a user selects the product number I want to copy that picture and copy it to J42 of the first sheet. My issue is positioning the picture.
I have done the above where when I select a picture name from a drop down list it displays the relevant picture in another cell by using the IF function in the named formula
My question is why cant I use VLOOKUP instead of IF in the named formula. When I use it it comes with an error.
i have saved some pictures in my excel sheet.

What is the proper syntax for working with a Range with to name it after the PasteSpecial command? The Selection approach I am trying here does not seem to work unless I am currently within the same workbook.

Selection.Name = "Strat Plan"

I want to paste/show a photo in a particular cell (D2) on a worksheet (called PP). I wish to delete any photo that may already be there in D2.
The picture's name (e.g. J-145.jpg) will be found in another sheet (called MP) in cell H1.
My pictures are stored in a folder (lets call it c:pictures) and the one I want has the same name (J-145.jpg).
I've tried many macros but none work.
I want to copy one picture from sheet one to sheet two. I just know the location of this picture.
I'm having a 6000+ records, (contacts DB) exported in Excel 2003 format from MS Outlook.
Except the "First" and "LastName", all other contact elements are in the field "Notes" (which is the BZ column according to the exported outlook layout) multiplied by 6469 (records in total)
Useful information are included !!!
I'll give an example of a record...
Column: BZ, Row: 543 says --> "2110000000-6989000000, 1TOK_TER:17-11-010(25 DAYS LESS),
KATERINA 25 (MANTAS KALNNNNN_HYPERTENSION)1000-150, W:95_105, , HR THE 16wks_US NEFRON OK,
NT OK_B EPIP OK(GOLF BALL)_KAMPILI ORIAKI(DIAITA)_DOPPLER OK, O+,TEST OK(TOX_), , , , , , "
Now, I want every time to take the part of the text says "TER:something..." (part of which is date, but not every time with the known format dd-mm-yyyy, as you see here is yyy, followed by something else, with parenthesis here and maybe more data) and copy it in a new cell..., e.g:CO Column, same Row...
Above and every field which by the way is formatted as General (and it is text mainly) are made by merging older excel fields where data laid here and there, that's why you see the commas...with the method of a module with the following code:
Function MyMerge(Rng As Range)
For Each Cell In Rng
Temp = Temp & Cell.Value & ", "
Next Cell
Temp = Mid(Temp, 1, Len(Temp) - 2)
MyMerge = Temp
End Function
Note1:Records with the above string (TER:dd-mm-yyy) are 771 from 6469.
Note2: As an alternative solution I can see an extraction of the TER:dd-mm-yyy string and the copy in a new place, like the:CO Column, same Row...
I have an existing spreadsheet with a column of strings (actually VIN numbers). These numbers correllate to a bunch of text files, that can exist in one of three folders (UsernameDesktop1, 2, or 3) on my desktop. What I need the macro to do is:
1) get the filename from A2 (A1 is a heading row)
2) Find the appropriate text file in one of the three folders
3) Put the folder name into I2
4) Scan the text file for some strings, and copy some data that follows those strings into J2:O2 (I can handle programming this)
5) Close the text file
6) repeat above for the remainder of filenames (about 1800 files)
i m working on a mechanical project , I need to do some modifications to my XLS file that i aint familair with.
http://aycu36.webshots.com/image/348...0572870_rs.jpg
I have one column full of Item #s and Descriptions. I have another column that I want JUST the Item# in it.
For example:
Column 1:
Gyroscope REF#1234 Bike Thing
Column 2 Should Be:
1234
Column 1:
BallWall Bikes Ret# 12456 Helmet Thing
Column 2S hould Be:
12456
I don't know how to do this (I do know how to do VBA mildly, and I am pretty good with formulas). I also have a database of every Item# that could be in that cell.
