I am trying to associate pictures to a dropdown box. The pictures are on a separate sheet. The picture is to be displayed on E20 and the drop down box is in K20. Im not very good at VBA and I accomplished this once before using the =INDIRECT function. But for some reason it is not working now.
View 1 RepliesI have fond a couple of posts to achieve this however they all require selecting the picture first. Is there a way to change the picture formula without selecting the picture?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have excel worksheet with 2 sheets in it. Let’s call the one "Database", it consist of 713 rows and 15 columns with data in of my product. Then the other one "Display Product" in it you type in the code of the specific product so it search for my code and display all of the information of that product code on the "Display Product" sheet and it that work.
Now I want to link a picture to that specific product to the code. Here's the code I used:
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
Dim oPic As Picture
Me.Pictures.Visible = False
With Range("A71")
For Each oPic In Me.Pictures
If oPic.Name = .Text Then
oPic.Visible = True
oPic.Top = .Top
oPic.Left = .Left
Exit For
End If
Next oPic
End With
End Sub
Now this code works fine up to a specific limit in my case 66 picture to a product, and I need at least 200 more images in it but I get a runtime error in my macro when I put one more image in. This is where I get the run time error -> “Me.Pictures.Visible = False“.
I don't know if excel is limited to image usage. Or maybe there is another way to do what I want to do with more advance coding.
It's difficult to explain, the attached shows the situation better. Basically there's a picture that is somehow linked to a cell. But, you can update the picture or the cell and the other one gets updated.

Unfortunately, I could not save that file or remember the website as my Internet went bonkers...
So can someone please help me with the same....

I'm using Excel 2007. I don't see anymore the form creation tool that I have used many many years ago.
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.
If you then use the "Change Picture" icon the photo embeds but how do I get my macro to embed the photo.
Sub InsertPhoto(PictNo)
Dim SH As Worksheet
Dim Rng As Range
Dim MyPic As Picture
Dim sPath As String

I have created a sheet and have two drop down menus that allow me to show a picture depending upon the answers from the drop downs. I have used Macros to define what needs to happen on two of the drop downs. Here is where my brain starts to lose it. I would like to create two more drop downs (which I have on already done) that will allow for two more pictures to be shown. Equalling 4 pictures in all.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a work book that contains various sheets with different information.
I have two different categories in one of the sheets,1 which contains counties and the other containing districts.
I have done a validation for the county which allows me to pick a county from a drop down list which works fine.I would like to create a drop down list for the districts aswell such that when i select i.e southyorkshire from the counties dropdown list,the districts drop down list will bring only districts in southyorkshire,excluding all the other districsts.hopefully i'll like the same to apply to all other counties.
I have one drop down list in cell A1 and another in cell C1 with the same data. When I select something in A1 I want it to change in C1 also and the other way around. Is this actually possible?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a drop-down menu which selects the type of product my company sells. On another sheet I have a 2-column table which lists product type (redundant with the drop-down) with its corresponding accounting code. I want to be able to select from the drop-down menu the product in question and have Excel lookup the accounting code associated with that product and display it in a column next to the drop-down. For example, on Sheet A, I select from the drop-down Frogger. Excel then looks at the table where I list out all products (Frogger, Tetris, etc) with their corresponding accounting code (1,2,3 etc) and then in the column to the right of the drop-down, it displays the corresponding accounting code.

I have an excel that has dropdown column from form control, in F4 there is a formula of vlookup that take the range from A2 to B20 in consideration but the reference cell that is given to vlookup formula to pick corresponding value is E4 which is also the reference cell of dropdown box and therefore its not showing any name rather than a value, problem with the formula is that when we select any name from dropdown it does not respond to any value in F4 despite changing values in E4.
I am using these setting for the first time.

I have 4 sheets from sheet1 to sheet3, I typed code date and quantity which the code has 5 columns. In sheet 4 I have defined dropdown in I2 Cell(yellow fill) which has all code fromsheet1 to sheet3. So my purpose is that in sheet 4 I want to select code in I2 cell then it will appear in code column date and quantity automatically for the last cell of date and quantity. Note: I'm looking only the last cells when I select the code in dropdown.
View 6 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?

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

I have two worksheets, one with detail monthly information and one with YTD information. So let's say the three numbers I want to capture in the YTD sheet are in columns B, G and I on the monthly sheet. January's data might be in B5, G5 and I5. February's data is in B12, G12 and I12 and so on.
On the YTD sheet in cell C2 I link to Monthly!B5 and in C3 I link to Monthly!B12 so cells C2 to C13 on the YTD sheet show the monthly totals from column B on the detail sheet. On the YTD sheet, cells C20 to C31 show the monthly totals from column G on the monthly sheet, so cells G5, G12, etc. And finally, cells C40 to C51 on the YTD sheet show monthly totals form column I on the monthly sheet.
In the past I've always created all these links manually. After creating the links in C2 to C13 on the YTD sheet, is there a way to use a formula in C21 that uses the link in C2 to create a link for G5?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am working with a spreadsheet created by a predecessor and there is a picture at the top of one of the worksheets. When I select the picture and hit Delete, it seems to work, but the picture is still there. When I move it around the worksheet and resize it, a copy with the same name ("Picture 47") remains in the spot I moved it from. When I delete the resized/moved picture, it deletes, but the picture still remains in the original spot.
When I record a macro and select the picture and hit delete - or even when I move the picture and resize it - the recorded macro is blank.
All of the pictures seem to be named "Picture 47"
