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
I have used the following code behind a projects Command button for some time, and works well in Excel 2002/2003.
It's used to look for and insert a Picture file, located on the users PC, select cell C2, re-size it to fit inside a bordered cell area and then nudge it over, off the border line.
Sub Load_Image()
Dim oPict, PictObj
Dim sImgFileFormat As String
'Open file
GetPict:
oPict = Application.GetOpenFilename("All Pictures (*.tif; *.bmp; *.jpg; *.gif; *.jpeg; *.png; *.cpt; *.tiff),*.tif; *.bmp; *.jpg; *.gif; *.jpeg; *.png; *.cpt; *.tiff")
If oPict = False Then End
Range("C2").Select
Set PictObj = ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(oPict)
With PictObj
.ShapeRange.LockAspectRatio = msoFalse
.ShapeRange.Width = 712#
.ShapeRange.Height = 510#
End With
PictObj.Select
With PictObj
Selection.ShapeRange.IncrementLeft 1#
Selection.ShapeRange.IncrementTop 1#
End With
Range("A1").Select
End Sub
Unfortunately, Excel 2007 doesn't seem to identify the Cell reference "C2".
It modifies the Picture size OK but does not position the picture in the correct position.
I've tried re-recording it but 2007 misses most of actions.???
Despite my efforts looking on other forums, I don't seem to find a code that works on both version of Excel.
I just upgraded to Excel 2007 and my macro from Excel 2003 for inserting a picture doesn't work correctly in 2007. I have a command button that states insert picture and when you click it, it will let you insert a picture into the cell and hide the command button. In 2007 it will let you insert the picture, but it isn't centered and expands into other cells and the command button is still visible. The picture appears to be the correct size it just doesn't center itself in the cell and the command button is still visible. Below is the

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....?
how i can add a box on my sheet when i click on it to open the insert picture (or open picture). I need this for my recipes. I try the Image (Image ActiveX Control) but i do not now how to make it work. Also i try to insert picture each time but it takes me time to move it and re-size it every time. I need a faster way to add my pictures fast and in the same position every time.

how do I select the picture and copy it into the excel file.
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

Millenium Copthorne InternationalTVGI Race Name Logo

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 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.
I have to file an insurance claim due to a fire in my home. I have a folder with .jpg photos located at C:InsClaimOnlinePhotos . Im working with Excel 2003. I am trying to put the picture of the damaged protery in Column A on the same row as the detail about that damaged property using the ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert function. The name of the picture is located in Column B. There are multiple sheets in the Excel book and each contains from 10 to over 700 rows. I would like to run the macro based on the active sheet to add the pictures one sheet at a time. I would like the pictures to be about 1.2" High by 1.6" Wide and be actually be within the cell of Column A of the row where the detail information is located. I have played with writing my own code, pieces of others code and full code sets I found in the Forum. Nothing works. Below is the best I found so far but, it uses Column C for the placement of the pictues.
When I try to run the below code I get Run-Time Error "1004" "Unable to get the insert Property of the Picture class".
I'm not sure if this code should work in Excel 2003 or not.
The error I am getting (highlighted in red) is that it cannot view the object properties. So the picture is put in, but it's emplacement cannot be set and the picture cannot be renamed (which must occur for other macros to see it).
Pages are not protected. The only self automated macro is on workbook open, and it only resizes to view the area depending on the persons resolution.

I'm using a macro to insert a photo in to a Excel 2010 workbook. If the photo moves location it will no longer display the photo in the document as I belive the photo is being referenced instead of embedded.

Basically, I am curious if I were to insert a value into say cell A1, is there any way B1 could display a picture I've saved. To be a bit more specific, A1's value would be 777, and B1's inserted picture would be 777.png saved on my PC. This would need to apply for the whole of the sheet for all the values in column A.
View 5 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.
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.

However, when run in excel 2007 the shape is not filled. If you right click the shape, format shape and click on the "Picture or texture fill" it will fill the shape with the previously selected picture in the userform. I have tried by adding
shpTemp.UserPicture.Fill.Visible = True....................
