• Excel VLOOKUPs With Pi... - Excel VLOOKUPs With Pictures!
Another SQA and one that a lot of people ask about!!!
We know that VLOOKUP's are really easy for pulling words and numbers from a table...everyone can do that, but can you use a VLOOKUP to pull an image? Well, yes you can...we just need a bit of set up first...
First up...paste in your pictures against the relevant name, and make sure you resize your CELLS to fit your pictures (or the other way around)...either way, the picture must NOT overlap any of its cell borders...it's also very useful if all the pictures have similar dimensions (identical would be even better)...
Next we add a label to the CELL that each picture lives in. We can do it manually but it's quicker to use the name manager and chose create from selection...
Then we will copy the CELL (not the picture) that contains one of our pictures...any one, it doesn't matter as we'll correct it later, and PASTE SPECIAL...LINKED PICTURE where we want the looked up picture to appear.
We now have picture OF THE CELL with a picture in it (note the distinction there)...if you click the picture (of the cell), you will see the address for the original cell in the formula bar...with me so far?
Next we add a new named range for our picture...in the "refers" to we will say INDIRECT(click the cell containing their name...which is the SAME NAME AS THE LABEL FOR THEIR PICTURE).
Finally, we overwrite the cell reference in the formula bar for the picture, and replace it whatever the name of that last named range we just created...watch it through, it's magic!
