I need to find an easy way to locate an image on my server and upon selection rather than inserting the actual image I need to insert the image path. e.g. "s:imageshighresgreen1234.jpg"
View 3 RepliesI was wondering if it is possible to make a picture box show a sheet from a pdf file?
I have a lot of pdf files with maps (all in one folder) which I need to be able to show the maps on excel by using a cell for the reference.
E.G: I type in Cell A1 = "Map1" then B1:D4 (merged Cells) shows the map from the PDF file Map1.pdf from the folder.
I have this excel that look like this:
A1, B1, C1 contains an image with the numer 1, 2 and 3.
D1 is a cell where you can put only the number 1 2 and 3 (alert if you insert something else)
E1 have to contain the number in the D1 written with letters (I did this with the formula: =IF(D1=1;"One";IF(D1=2;"Two";IF(D1=3;"Three";"Wrong Imput")))
F1 have to contain the image from the A1, B1, C1 corresponding to the number in D1
Now, how do I do this ? I read an article here, on this forum, about doing this. I know how to copy an image from A1, B1, C1 in F1, but I don't know how to make a formula to do this.
To copy an image from A1, B1, C1 I do this:
- I copy the cell (F1)
- I hold Shift key
- I go to Start -> Paste -> Click the little arrow -> Last option (Translated from my language I think It's Linked Image) -> I switch the formula in that cell to =A1 or =B1 or =C1 -> The image appears.
I really want to know how to do that thing. I saw that you can not use an IF formula in the linked image cell so I need another option.
By the way, I attached the excel. If you will open it, go to Item2 Spreadsheet. I'm using Excel 2010 now.
Is it possible to have a thumbnail of an image display in Excel 2010 and when you click on the thumbnail, it is viewed in its normal size?

I will take a macro if that is the only way.

I need to link an image to a cell value and display the selected image in a new sheet of the same excel. I am attaching samplefile for easy reference. The requirement is, from the workout sheet when I select from drop down list, then the corresponding cell value appears in Parameter sheet in C9 cell.
There are four images copied in Parameter excel. The given image has to be selected and linked to the C9 cell value. Based on the selection that particular image should be shown on Sample Picture sheet. Here based on the selection only the image should reflect here.
My workbook simply has multiple columns of data which will be summarized visually in a tag cloud (I have the tag cloud part taken care of already creating either a jpg or png, I simply have to change the extension within a batch file to change between picture formats)
I need to have the tag cloud image display and update depending on which column the user would like to summarize (for now I have simplified the issue by only having one of the data columns in my workbook, and will worry about the user selection of the data column to be summarized later).
My Main Question:
Focusing on the image display and updating now, whether it be an ActiveX Image Control or any other way. I've been playing around manually before I try and code it and I can not get either a jpg or png file to attach to the ActiveX control (both of which cause an Invalid Picture Message).
The file name can stay the same if need be and for now I think/assume that'd be easiest (I have my Tag cloud generator just replacing the previously existing image file of the same name).
Would ActiveX control be the way to go for this dynamically changing image?
I am looking for a way to take the picture name associated with an image ie: (picture 571) and place that picture name in the cell next to the image.
I can see the picture name - it registers in the top left box that usually indicates the cell the cursor is on... and I could manually type that name next to each image.
However my spreadsheet has several thousand rows- each with several columns of information and an image..
I am looking for a way "formula?" to automatically read the image in cell J4 and populate cell K4 with the image name... and so on.
The reason for my request... is I am importing products into a web based shopping cart... to do so I have to export the products to a csv and import that csv into the shopping cart. The process of exporting to a csv- strips away all the images and leaves just data.
I found that I can save the document as an html and that process creates a folder with all the images- saved as (picture 571.jpg) if the resulting csv had the image name... the shopping cart would then look for that image name in my image file and it would populate into the shopping cart appropriately.
This seemed on it's face like a really simple thing to do, I have plenty experience with excel & I thought I'd be able to make cell k4= j4 and tada it would glean the image name & I could simply copy that formula all the way down the sheet & it would be done... but I just cant find the magic button that freely gives up the image name...
I have a dataset that includes the path and optionally an HTTPS URL to an image. Is it possible to embed this image in a cell?
Short of that what might be some other options?
is there a way to load an image out when u type the image name in the textfield.
Example when I type in my name it load my image out beside the name.
I have a number of image controls on a user form, each being loaded with an image from file.
Image1 being loaded with a picture of a bus image2 being loaded with a picture of a school
And so on
Now what I am trying to do is when that image is clicked the name of that image is passed to a textbox
So the action would be
1 image of bus loaded into image control1 , the name of that image being bus.jpg
2 image is clicked
3 the name bus.jpg appears in a text box
Here is what I have so far
Code:
Private Sub Image1_Click()
DataInput.TextBoxItem.Value = bus.jpg
DataInput.TextBoxItem.Value= Image1.Name - this does not work
End Sub
Which works but as you can see this is static, as I have supplied the value , were as I would like the clicking action to pick up the name of the jpeg being displayed
So expanding upon this if say image1 is loaded with say a picture of a car instead of a bus
LValue4 = "E:Car.jpg"
Image1.Picture = LoadPicture(LValue4)
Now when it is clicked the name of the image being displayed in image control1 would be Car.jpg
And it is this value I wish to transfer to a text box for now will do more with it later
In addition to this I am not sure if the best idea is to have a number of image controls and load each with an individual picture or have one image control and swap the picture by clicking a command button
Is there a way to have image box display an image with a name matching data from a cell? example: if I type "hello" in cell a1, Image box will load image named "hello". And display new images by changing the name in cell a1. Note: the images will be located in a permanent folder.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a multi-row ,multi-column spreadsheet which lists furniture items, and with some plain Excel formulas allows me to create a proper list.
I'm using Excel as a database, in Sheet1 I have all the data, and Sheet2 is actually where I select the data and set the list of the chosen items.
Now, I have the images for all the items listed in Sheet1 in the same folder of the xlsm file, and I want to insert the proper image in a given cell in the given row.
Looking for something which may do the trick I did find this code in your site and it actually works for me!
Now, what I need is to provide the PictureFileName and TargetCell via parameters already present in the spreadsheet.

I am trying to display an image ("image") on an image control ("Image1") placed in a worksheet ("Sheet1"). The problem is that I want this action to take place when I press a button in a user form.

Excel 2010. I need to place picture into one cell or one big merged cell, as a background fill. picture must resize to size of cell. must be fixed in, not in front. i still need write into that cell, so it needs to be really background.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs it possibe to insert an image (such as Picture1 which is the name of an image created by Insert>Name>Define) using an IF statement as in:
=IF(A1=B1,+Picture1,"")
I've created a user form that the code will describe. However I would like to place a sized image next to it. for example A1 will be name, A2 will be rank and A3 will have a "jpeg/jpg" image.
Could manage to do all three with the exception that I cannot get the image to go into A3 and resize accordingly.
I want to be able to click a button on my Excel Spreadsheet that will take me to my JPeg Photo location and allow me to add a JPeg Photo.
I have the below code but i does not recognise the JPeg File, so it work upto actually being able to select an image.
I want to insert image on my userform, but I have problems with It. Image is originally .png and has no background, which is what I need.
Excel doesn't allow me to use .png, so I had to convert It to .jpg, but then background is included. Even that would be o.k., If I could somehow change picture background to "&H8000000F&" system colour, but failed to do that also.
So I tried with converting file to .ico, and again Excel recognizes It as invalid picture.
I just want to insert image, and leave background same colour as Userform.

I have a macro as follows which allows me to select multiple images and it inserts them into excel. Firstly it deletes previous images.
It also increases the size of the rows to 250 and column to 100 to make the image size standard.
I have it skipping every second row which I intend to add the filename of the image.
What is it currently doing is adding the first filename (including path) in A5 and then not showing the next filenames.
I am using ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = PicList to generate the filename.
How to get the remaining names? Also I would only like the filename if possible and not the full path.

Dim filename As Variant
Dim PicList() As Variant
Dim PicFormat As String
Dim Rng As Range

Im sure my Macro is probably overkill for what I am trying to do however I have merged about 4 macros I have found together.
I want a function that takes a URL string and then inserts a picture into the cell and fits it into the size of the cell (which I made square). The images are small but over 50 000 so it would be impractical to download them all; thus I want the spreadsheet to insert a specific one, based on my formula.
Tried a macro I found but it only gave the the '1004 Picture class' error.
So the function must be simple to use, maybe: ....
I have a worksheet (Covers) that is going to be the front and back covers for a binder.
The title/text portion is automatically filled from cells elsewhere in the workbook.
I have a button to bring up a userform that allows one to select the images (3 .jpg images) you wish to use on the cover pages.
I have code that successfully brings up the userform, and allows image selection and preview within the userform.
Now I want to insert these selected images into the worksheet, centered on specified cells and sized (zoom) to a maximum width/height (whichever is reached first).
Can a blank Picture be inserted with its size specified/fixed, then use code (Image1 = LoadPicture?) to change what is displayed?
Or do I have to calculate the size, center it on the page, and insert the image each time?
The code (in part) for the UserForm looks like:
Private Sub SelFcvrImg_Click()
Dim FCpicName As Variant
ChDir ("S:DanBuilder Logos-Photos")
FCpicName = Application. GetOpenFilename(Title:="Select an Image!", _
fileFilter:="Pictures (*.bmp;*.gif;*.tif;*.jpg),*bmp;*gif;*.tif;*.jpg")
If FCpicName <> False Then InsertImgForm.FCoverImgPrvw.Picture = LoadPicture(FCpicName)
End Sub
The UserForm has an Image (preview) with PictureSizeMode set to zoom.
I'm really after the same thing embedded in the sheet...

I am using an XY scatter chart that displays the planned path and an actual path as I go. The planned path is set up in 100' increments and goes 12000' and actual path varies along the way.
My data that I use is the Northing (ft), Easting (ft) and Vertical Section (ft) for both the planned path and actual path.
I was wondering if there was an east way to get that information from the chart or if there is a formula that would allow me to calculate distance between the two points by using the data I use for my chart.
With this msg i am attaching one excel. I have the data on the basis of "image wise files data", but where how to get "record wise image numbers", i am unknown on this.
