I've tried also script to delete pictures as once they are inserted in a document is grows on it's size. But I'm unable to make it work. Tried multiple different scripts and also shape approach but pictures are not deleted, while all the other objects are. Like buttons, charts, etc. Tried even to consult it with ChatGPT but with no result.
Thanks for video! I was looking for such explanation very long. I really like the way you explain so I can repeat and understand more. I wish you great success
This was great! I was able to create without any problem. Thank you. Is there a modification needed if the cell range for the pictures has merged cells?
Excellent. Liked & definately subscribed. Thank you so much for your time to make this video. Could you please kindly teach us how to dynamically load photos from network drive based on user's input. Ex: There are hundreds thousands of products's photos, say user is searching for product #1, photo of this product ID will be loaded automatically from network drive. Thanks a lot for your help
Very helpful tutorial, thanks - just one question, is there a way of changing the size of the picture in the VBA code so that the pictures don't reach the sides of the cell the picture is located in?
I've been looking all over for something that does this. I didn't want to copy pictures in and then manipulate them, but from a link, fill in the picture from a link. I'm going to retrieve them from one of my disks, but it's still a hyperlink. Thanks a lot. Irv in Florida
This is so helpful, thank you so much for doing this! I was wondering though, I was trying to accomplish this with a link to a file in my onedrive. I have a picture file in there that I have shared for everyone and I would like to use it for the image. It is giving me an error. Would there be a different procedure for that?
Thanks a lot for this video!! But I still need your help! I'm trying to make the same thing, but using a Google Drive image link. However, i don't know why it doesn't work. Could you please help me?
This is MEGA awesome, is there a way to transport the images to another sheet? I tried to designate a sheet by going Sheets("my sheet name") instead of activesheet, but it doesnt work
@@DSMStrength hey! do you have a fix for this? I'm having the same problem. Also - how can I change the range e.g. I have urls in other columns too. Thanks!
great video! how do I massively import images though? I mean what if I have 1000 products? it is impossible to copy-paste 1000 times the URL for each product. thank you very much.
It seems that there is some kind of security isse that was not in place when this was made. the 1004 errror that occures has sometthing to do with whether the link is open of not. i tried to open and keep the first 5 pictures open and then run script. That was the script imported the first 5 pictures but stopped after that. You only see the 1004 error if you delete the skip on error line
Used the VBA code for an Image Template, but does anyone know what code to ADD to handle error if image not found, then proceed to finding the next link?
Thanks. This vba code is awesome. I add it as a module to my working file with a small modification, but i still can’t modify it to skip text (just text info, not hyperlink) at B4:B100 and load to C4:C100 text when in B cell is text and picture when in B cell is hyperlink.
Great content! For some reason mine macro doesn't work as quick. It takes a while to load all the images meanwhile yours took less than a moment. How come? (I use Excel 2016 and each image is less than 50 kb in size)
this can be due to several reasons including speed of your computer, other things going on in your spreadsheet, number of rows, number of pictures you are trying to run this script for etc. I kept my spreadsheet really lean for the purposes of the video.
Hello! Thank you so much for the video, I have tried it multiple times but it didn’t run for me, it says”can’t execute code in break mode”, may I get some help please via WhatsApp or any other app, that’s convenient for you?, I need this so bad for work, I’ll be so grateful for your help🙏🙏
At first, Thank you so much for sharing a wonderful VBA, however if URL links are not available, VBA returns "Run-time error '1004': Unable to get the Insert property of the Picture class" Do yo have any suggestion to change VBA, in case of facing error links-> step over-> come to next row to insert photos
I can maybe figure something out, TBH this video was a long time ago I would have to go back through the code. I would suggest that you clean up the data ahead of time before running the macro if possible.
Your video really helped me. I just have one request, how can i lock the aspect ratio of the original image so that regardless of how i change the cell size (row and column), the image will only change according to its original aspect ratio. Im doing this so that the rest of the images in each cell that arent all of the same aspect ratio, would not get disproportionate when I have to change the column and row sizes. Also i want to be able to keep the image in the cell from spilling over to the next cell. thanks in advance!
@@DSMStrength sorry I meant excel 2016 - was building a powerpoint pres while I watched. Seemingly cant separate the two words in my head. Any idea what might be the issue ? e.g Permissions etc ?

You can use our free screenshot API to securely render an image from any URL of your excel sheet. For example if you need a preview for many links.
does it work with base64 format? please
unfortunately I do not know

in other words i want the image inserted from the url to be scaled according to its original aspect ratio, so i think it should be locked.
You can increase font size from tools options
yes you can
Thanks, but what if an empty row is there, how the code steps for next instead of stop running
:) solved by myself, Set rng = Range("c4:c5,c7:c8") , skips the empty row of c6
It flags the following error for me:
