Linking Image To Cell Value And Display Selected Image In New Sheet?
Mar 18, 2014
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.
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.
In excel 2007, I have an embedded image on a sheet which I want to make it hidden by default. When someone hovers over a particular cell say cell B3, then image should be displayed below this cell (sort of hyperlinking) and when the cursor or activell cell is not in B3 it should be hidden again. What steps/technique/VBA code will make it happen ?
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 am trying to add a feature to an excel spreadsheet that will display image files (map files, .emf if possible), whenever its respective cell is clicked. I have a reasonable amount of experience with macros, although it was purely in excel which completely limits my vba skills. I could probably figure something out if I spent a few weeks on it and then it would probably be like 90 mb and slow.
I have two bitmap images, and I would like to show only one image at a time, based on the content of another cell's pull-down list. If the user selects "AIR", then display the AIR image. If the user selects "SERVO", then display the SERVO image.
I have found Displaying an image based on text contained within a cell. which appears to be a very similar question, but no steps to follow.
Basically I have a folder with around 300 images in it, each is called ProductId number.jpg eg Z99S1234567.jpg
In my sheet I am using the same ProductId number and would like to display the product image on the sheet. I have A1:D19 as spare space Lookig at the info I have found the image will have to go into a cell, so can I break all the rules and merge cells to fit the image in, or do I need to make a single cell big enough or can I use VBA to import the image somehow to a specific place on the sheet.
There will only ever be one looked up image on the screen at a time.
I'm trying to display a different image based on the contents of a cell. For example if cell A1 = "Gerrard" I would then like to display a picture of Steven Gerarrd. Is this possible? If so can anyone give me a steer in how I might acheive this.
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"
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 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
I'm trying to writ a small user form with a text box, buttom and image container. The idea is when I type a sign number and click the button the form add the sign number to the address path of the folder containing the images and set the image containers picture to the corisponding file .. this is what I've done so far but I cant get it to work -
I have a code that generates a URL for an image (on the internet, not on the local machine) and I would like that picture to be displayed within a userform (preferably at it's original resolution).
Is there a way to insert a reference image thumbnail into my worksheet? I've tried inserting images/pictures directly, however these are duplicate copies of the originals from my system folder. C:/my documents/my pictures. I have about a hundred small images in this folder which are continually updated. (ie: the image changes) I would need this update to be reflected in excel as well.
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. I am trying to use the following code, but it seems that VBA does not recognize the image control ("Image1") in the worksheet.
Private Sub cmdDisplayImage_Click() Dim image As Variant image = ThisWorkbook.Path & "sun.jpg" Sheets("Sheet1").Activate Image1.Picture = LoadPicture(image) End Sub
The file I am trying to view is saved as follows: C: Test.gif
What I have done.Added a image control to a dialog box, called image1 Added the following event handler to image1: x = c: test.gif Image1.picture = loadpicture (X)Pressed F5 to test the code and brings up a dialog box with a blank image box.
Not called the userform in the main module (didn't seem much point considering the test failed)
My questions
where I am going wrong with this, the correct code?
Also in inputting the address of the file I could not use the C: format as this brought up an error. What is the correct format?
I'm trying to put the image in the background by doing 'Format - Sheet - Background' but the image become tiles instead of one.
I want the image in the background so I can edit cells with formulas on top of the image. Is there any way of manupilate the background image with Macro so I can have just on image instead of tiles?
I've done watermark but that's only available in preview. I'm using Excel 2003
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.
I get some records from XML and display in the sheet. Now, I need to put an image for each record in the sheet while displaying records. And also on click of the image I need to have some code to be executed.
I have a workbook with a number of active sheets, I am wanting to be able to create a button that allows the user to upload an image from their computer to a particular cell. I wish to be able to create a fixed size for this image so it crops it proportionally. In effect it is a button that open the insert picture dialog. I then want this picture to be placed in a particular cell.
I can then use this picture in other part of the workbook so that it inserts it in to other areas.
Sub OptionButton222_Click() With Worksheets("Beam Input") .Shapes("Notch 1").Visible = False .Shapes("Notch 2").Visible = False End With End Sub Sub OptionButton223_Click() With Worksheets("Beam Input") .Shapes("Notch 1").Visible = False .Shapes("Notch 2").Visible = True End With End Sub Sub OptionButton224_Click() With Worksheets("Beam Input") .Shapes("Notch 1").Visible = True .Shapes("Notch 2").Visible = False End With End Sub
i need to modify it so that a selection on the beam input page causes the images to change on the beam output page. Currently this code is in the module section of VBA.
I have written a code for reading the excel and capturing the content as an image but now i want to paste the captured content into another sheet of the same excel and want to add new column in the same captured image?
Is it possible to add a column in the captured image?
This is going to be difficult to explain, but I'll try... I need to be able to format a sheet that has all data in column format. Column A contains a number and B an application. C contains the issue data. I need the issue data to be moved under column A and B as illustrated below. What formula can I do to accomplish this?

Can't get html or the image tags to work for some reason.
Anyway to use VBA to print an Excel sheet with the Microsoft Document Image Writer to a specified folder automatically? I understand and use automatic printing all the time, but I don't know how to use VBA to specify the filename and folder once it prints with the Document Image Writer.
