I have tried several VBA macros from the Internet, but I have not found a solution.

Folder C:\Temp\ contains images (about 1500 files, different width and height. All files are named different format name)
example: 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg, 4.jpg, 4A.jpg, 5blok.jpg .... .etc to 1500.jpg

In the column "D" I have a image name
example:
D2 = 10
D3 = 7blok
D8 = 25
etc.

I want into cells B2, B3, B8, etc. insert images based on image name in column "D". (Only in the row containing the image name in the "D". If a cell in column D is empty, then the cells in the same row in column B should be empty)

My problem is the following:
- After starting the VBA Excel should insert images into column "B" based on their names in column "D" (but only to the row that contains the image name in the "D")
- Some images are dimensions: 154x75, 272x104, 96x150, 150x118 etc. I want to VBA all images that are wider than 100 pix reduced to 100 pixels, and the images that are less than 100 pix leave the respective width. I want set maximum image width is 100 pix (width of column B). The images height should be adjusted (adapt) to a given width. So, should keep the ratio width/height
- Finally, in each row in which the inserted picture Excel should adjust (adapt) the height row for that picture.
- When I delete files in the Temp folder, Excel needs to keep all of the images inside Workbook

I hope you understand. If you need, I will be further clarified.
Note! I use non-US Excel settings

Can someone help?

Hi all,

I don't mean to hijack this post but in regards to the same topic.... I got this script which pops up the windows browser to select the images and all which is great.

But with this code, how can I also have it grab the "Filename" (i.e. excel_image.jpg)?

And have the images and file names placed into Row's, not columns.

Row 'A' - > 'Filenames.jpg'
Row 'B' - > 'Filenames.jpg as a Thumbnail'

Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
Row 'A' - > 'Filenames.jpg'
Row 'B' - > 'Filenames.jpg as a Thumbnail'
Click to expand...

The above is confusing, as rows are typically numbers (Row 1, Row 2...) and columns are typically letters (Column A, Column B...)

So the following is a guess at what you're asking for.

Code: 
Sub InsertPictures()
Dim PicList() As Variant
Dim PicFormat As String
Dim Rng As Range
Dim sShape As Shape
Dim xRowIndex As Long, xColIndex As Long
On Error Resume Next
PicList = Application.GetOpenFilename(PicFormat, MultiSelect:=True)
xColIndex = 2

If IsArray(PicList) Then
    xRowIndex = 1
    For lLoop = LBound(PicList) To UBound(PicList)
        Set Rng = Cells(xRowIndex, xColIndex)
        Rng.Offset(0, -1).Value = PicList(xRowIndex)
        Set sShape = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddPicture(PicList(lLoop), msoFalse, msoCTrue, Rng.Left, Rng.Top, Rng.Width, Rng.Height)
        xRowIndex = xRowIndex + 1
    Next
End If
Columns.AutoFit
End Sub

Hi Tony, Thanks very much for the VBA code. I've tried to run it but without success. May I have clarification of a couple of aspects to allow me to diagnose what my problem might be.
I'm using Excel 2013.

"Set rng = Range("D2:D" & Cells(Rows.Count, 4).End(xlUp).Row)"

The "D2:D" is the destination column range isn't it? I've had to change to "U2:U".
and
Is "4).End(xlUp).Row)" the Column numeric number of the column in which the file name to be found is found - as might be the case in a Lookup cell column number?

I can't see what else there might be to designate that file name location.

I do have the module saved in an dot xlsm file to allow the VBA to work.

I shall be pleased to receive your response. Thanks very much.
Regards, Tim

This is what I get to work successfully to retain images in the Excel file, based on using '2013 version Set Shp = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddPicture".

----------------------
'2013 version Set Shp = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddPicture


Range("A2:A87").RowHeight = 114.5 'Change the range to what you need. The = is mm for setting Row height.
Range("A2:A87").ColumnWidth = 43.5 '- ditto -. The = is mm for setting Column height.


Dim Entry As Range
Dim WorkArea As Range
Dim Source As Worksheet

With Application
.ScreenUpdating = False
End With

Set Source = ActiveSheet
Set WorkArea = Source.Range(Cells(2, 2), Cells(Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row, 2)) 'This is set for getting the image file name from Column 2, Row 2.

For Each Entry In WorkArea
PicturePath = Dir("C:\images" & Entry.Value) 'Change to be your image folder path.
If PicturePath <> "" Then
Set Shp = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddPicture(Filename:="C:\images" & Entry.Value _ 'Again change to be your image folder path.
, linktofile:=msoFalse, savewithdocument:=msoTrue, Left:=Cells(Entry.Row, 1).Left, Top:=Cells(Entry.Row, 1).Top _
, Width:=Cells(Entry.Row, 1).Width, Height:=Cells(Entry.Row, 1).Height)
Shp.Placement = xlMoveAndSize
Shp.ControlFormat.PrintObject = True
Else
Entry.Offset(0, -1).Value = "Picture Not Found"
End If
Next Entry

End Sub
----------------------------

I hope this will provide clues and benefit to some. I haven't yet worked out how to set the Row height and Column width within the Shapes.AddPicture expression.
Regards, Tim

Hi tonyyy,

Thanks for the code. Only one problem, If we update data and run macro again, Image over lap on the previously inserted image. Can you send me a code where in it clears previous inserted images & insert all image again as per new data.

Yes, with the .AddPicture method rather than the Picture.Insert...

Code: 
Sub InsertPicsr1()
Dim fPath As String, fName As String
Dim r As Range, rng As Range
Dim shpPic As Shape

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
fPath = "C:\Temp\"
Set rng = Range("D2:D" & Cells(Rows.Count, 4).End(xlUp).Row)

End Sub

Oh by the way, you originally requested the pics to be <=100 pixels in width, then went on to say that your Column B was set to 100 pixels. So the code uses the width of Column B to set the maximum picture width; widen the column and your imported pictures will be wider, shrink the column and your imported pictures will be narrower.

sdshaha68,

Welcome to the Board.

You might try inserting the lines in red...

Code: 
Sub InsertPicsr2()
Dim fPath As String, fName As String
Dim r As Range, rng As Range
Dim shpPic As Shape

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
[COLOR=#ff0000]For Each shpPic In ActiveSheet.Shapes
    shpPic.Delete
Next shpPic[/COLOR]
fPath = "C:\Temp\"
Set rng = Range("D2:D" & Cells(Rows.Count, 4).End(xlUp).Row)
For Each r In rng
    On Error GoTo errHandler
    If r.Value <> "" Then
        Set shpPic = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddPicture(Filename:=fPath & r.Value & ".jpg", linktofile:=msoFalse, _
            savewithdocument:=msoTrue, Left:=Cells(r.Row, 2).Left, Top:=Cells(r.Row, 2).Top, Width:=-1, Height:=-1)
        With shpPic
            .LockAspectRatio = msoTrue
            If .Width > Columns(2).Width Then .Width = Columns(2).Width
            Rows(r.Row).RowHeight = .Height
        End With
    End If
errHandler:
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then
        Debug.Print Err.Number & ", " & Err.Description & ", " & r.Value
        On Error GoTo -1
    End If
Next r
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

Thanks Tonyyy,
I have only one problem now, If i add new data & run code again, previously saved images are inserted again & gets overlapped. How to clean previous image or avoid overlapping of the image. ??

Hi, this code works well for me with a few changes to suit my requirement. I have a slight issue though. I want the images to be only added once if the value in column D is repeated more than once. Below is the code I am using currently which adds images for every value in cell D:

Sub InsertPicsr1()
Dim fPath As String, fName As String
Dim r As Range


Application.ScreenUpdating = False
fPath = "D:\Data\Images"
For Each r In Range("D2:D" & Cells(Rows.Count, 4).End(xlUp).Row)

Yes, with the .AddPicture method rather than the Picture.Insert...

Code: 
Sub InsertPicsr1()
Dim fPath As String, fName As String
Dim r As Range, rng As Range
Dim shpPic As Shape

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
fPath = "C:\Temp\"
Set rng = Range("D2:D" & Cells(Rows.Count, 4).End(xlUp).Row)
For Each r In rng
    On Error GoTo errHandler
    If r.Value <> "" Then
        Set shpPic = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddPicture(Filename:=fPath & r.Value & ".jpg", linktofile:=msoFalse, _
            savewithdocument:=msoTrue, Left:=Cells(r.Row, 2).Left, Top:=Cells(r.Row, 2).Top, Width:=-1, Height:=-1)
        With shpPic
            .LockAspectRatio = msoTrue
            If .Width > Columns(2).Width Then .Width = Columns(2).Width
            Rows(r.Row).RowHeight = .Height
        End With
    End If
errHandler:
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
    Debug.Print Err.Number & ", " & Err.Description & ", " & r.Value
    On Error GoTo -1
End If
Next r
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Oh by the way, you originally requested the pics to be <=100 pixels in width, then went on to say that your Column B was set to 100 pixels. So the code uses the width of Column B to set the maximum picture width; widen the column and your imported pictures will be wider, shrink the column and your imported pictures will be narrower.
