Hi All,

I have the following issue that i cant seem to solve.

I have got a Macro that important JPEG images with an unique name (style code) to a field in Excel with the same unique name.
However this Macro only works with JPEG images, now the issue is that all the images have been changed to PNG and I'm not able to run the macro anymore.

Can anyone help me out to get the macro working again?

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate it.

Regards,
Kevin

Apparently the LoadPicture function cannot load .PNG files. This chain of posts:

provided an alternate.

In Module1 of your workbook use search and replace (Current Module) to change .jpg to .png (2 instances).
In Module1 of your workbook use search and replace (Current Module) to change "Set Pic = LoadPicture(strFileLoc)" to "Set Pic = LoadPictureGDI(strFileLoc)"
Download the "Download the example workbooks and images" file from the last link above. Unzip and open the Toggle Button 2.xlsm file and copy the MLoadPictureGDI module to your workbook.
