Hi,

Thanks in advance for your help.

I have created a job sheet which requires a previously captured signature to be added to the bottom as a proof of completion. The .jpg name is made of the date, the engineer, the job number and the word signature with hyphens separating them. I have so far managed to import the picture and place it where needed when i manually insert the job number into the VBA script. What i would like to do is use the Job No that has already been returned by the query. I am happy to either use the cell reference of the variable already created earlier in the script. The issue i am having is on the following part of the script.

ActiveSheet.Pictures.Delete
Sigfile = Dir$("\\dc01\Server VFP Static and Dynamic\Images" & "*JobNo*" & ".*")
SigLoca = ("\\dc01\Server VFP Static and Dynamic\Images")
Range("C40:G47").Select
ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(SigLoca & Sigfile).Select

both sigfile & sigloca return data when the "JobNo" is a physical number like "000035521". The variable "JobNo" works earlier on in the script, i just cant get it to work in this line above.

I have tried adding parenthesis but to no avail.

Kind Regards
Jason Boull
