On one sheet I have a table of contents that has a name in column A. In column B I currently have a hyperlink to some text to take me to a cell under a drawing object in another sheet. I wanted to make this more elegant and easier to see which object you are supposed to look at. To do this I thought of using VBA and anchoring a text box in column B of the TOC sheet that I could attach a macro to. Below is my code but it means I need a separate macro for each object. I have 200 and counting. The text in the adjacent cell in column A contains the name. Is there some way for the macro to know what row the control object is in so that it can get the name from the adjacent cell?
Second question. Is there a routine like .OnSelection where I could change the background color of the object only when it is selected? So when another object is selected the previous one reverts back to the original condition.
I found a VBA code to print all my charts in my project. It works well. The issue I am having now is trying to amend the code to also print a picture object I made with the camera tool. The picture object "Picture 52" displays on the print preview, but despite all the different things I tried from various post, it doesn't work. I have since went back to the original code.
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. Microsoft Excel 2003
i am totally new in excel and i am using excel 2007, my question is : how can i create an object in an excel sheet, so that when the mouse cursor move to it, it pops up anohter image?
In 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 want to have a sample file in excel which store picture of student in comment, I did this, but when I want to insert picture the file dialog appears, and if I click cancel, then there is an error, why? If some one optimise the code it would be very nice
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. in the next sheet i want that when i write the picture name the picture will appear as vlookup helps in the getting text and nos. can i do this with pictures or i tried to get to much from excel.
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
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....?
1) i have office 2003 on a laptop. within powerpoint, i can create a 'microsoft excel chart 11' object. to create a link to the excel data source, do i have to go through the odbc sql setup? it works, but i don't want my powerpoint to be dependent on some excel file somewhere. what are the other options to insert/make a functional pivot chart in powerpoint with the data also within powerpoint? the data as sheet option does not result in the chart being a pivot, it's just a plain chart. it has to be a proper object, not an image paste or a chart that updates links with the excel file open.
2) i have office 2007 on my other laptop. i can not find any suitable object to choose from to make a pivot chart in powerpoint. what's the best way to go about in 2007 version?
3) am i going about this the wrong way with the objects? should i be after vba code?
I have several pictures on a graph sheet (i.e. imported cliparts) which I am using as a key to describe outcomes. I also have a blank picture box which I want to show each of the key pictures depending on a certain value in a cell on another sheet.
In Picture1 i want: fx = If(sheet1!A1 = "Red",Picture2,Picture3)
Is it possible after inserting a picture in Excel and then shrinking it to the cell size un-shrink it to the original size by clicking the picture or placing cursor on the cell?
I 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.
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.
I copied this from another post and am having trouble getting it to work for me. I want to be able to run this macro, find a picture on my computer which could be located anywhere and then have it paste in specific cells.
Whenever I run this it lets me find the picture I want and when I select it I get error message that says "compile error" Syntax Error". It then does not put the picture on the sheet.
I tried to zip and attach the work sheet multiple times but keep getting error message and won't let me attach......"forum excel database has encountered a problem" ....
I would like to find out how to put a picture into a formula so that when: example if A1 equals a certain number then a picture will pop up on the worksheet.
So in otherwords - a picture will automaticly pop up - so I need a formula to include the picture.
Filename = Application.GetOpenFilename("JPG Files(*.jpg),*.jpg,GIF files(*.gif),*.gif") If Filename = False Then Response = MsgBox("Er was geen file gekozen!", vbOKOnly & vbCritical, "Er is iets fout gegaan") Exit Sub End If
Userform.Image1.Picture = LoadPicture(Filename)
Userform.Show I can choose a picture and it will be vissible in the Userform.
The problem is it's not saved into the userform it self. How can i make it so that when i choose a picture it's also the picture i see the next time i open the userform.
I have recorded a macro for inserting, sizing and positioning a product photo into a report. The photo file is in a directory containing many files. Filenames are alpha numeric codes with a .jpg extensions. I wish to be able to enter a different code into a spreadsheet cell which will be named and let the macro insert the proper photo from the files in the subdirectory.
Here is the code which was recorded and which brings up the photo for file "HGGA134.jpg ".
Range("B10").Select ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert( _ "C:Documents and SettingsRichard WrightDesktopNUEVOProduct PhotosHGGA134.jpg" _ ).Select Selection.ShapeRange.LockAspectRatio = msoTrue Selection.ShapeRange.Height = 195# Selection.ShapeRange.Width = 180# Selection.ShapeRange.Rotation = 0# End Sub
I need a way to change the "HGGA134" part of the code by having it reference a named cell in the report.
I am having difficulty getting a form to work the way that I would like it to work. I have a form that is used to display questions that my students will be answering. The form also is used to put the answers into a worksheet. I have 2 sheets. Sheet2 has the questions, student answers, and correct answers. Sheet1 is used to indicate correct answers and to keep track of percentage correct. I am fairly new to VB. I have 2 pieces of code that I am going to post. The first one works and the second one doesn't.
This is in the "This Workbook" section and it works. Option Explicit Public intNoQ As Integer Public strNoQ As String Public NumberofQuestions As Integer Dim StudentName As String Dim InputBoxAnswer As String Public Sub Workbook_Open() Application.Visible = False 'Hide Excel Load Questions Load NumberCorrect NumberofQuestions = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("K3").Value For intNoQ = 1 To NumberofQuestions strNoQ = VBA.CStr(intNoQ) If intNoQ = 1 Then Questions.Controls("QuestionNumberBox").Value = "Question#" & strNoQ Questions.Controls("QuestionBox").Value = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("B1").Value End If Questions.Controls("CorrectBox" & strNoQ).Visible = True Questions.Controls("CorrectLabel" & strNoQ).Visible = True Next intNoQ...............
I want a script that inserts a picture based upon criteria of another cell. So for instance if cell A1 = Mad then insert Mad.jpg else insert Happy.Jpg
I can get the picture inserted properly based upon the cell however the picture does not delete when I click the sub button again. I cannot make it delete Mad.jpg from it's location and replace it with Happy.jpg if the criteria in A1 says "Happy".
VB: Sub Picture() Dim myPict As Picture Dim myPicts As Integer
i need to have a way to link a small picture/thumbnail to a cell. so that there is a way to preveiw it. Ideally like what happens with the comments where you hover over the cell and the comment would pop up. or failing that may be a cell linking to the image.
