Code:
Sub Insert_Multiple_Images()

Set Image_Names = Range("B3:B8")
Image_Location = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\Images”
Image_Format = ".jpg”

Set Cell_Reference = Range("C3:C8")

For i = 1 To Image_Names.Rows.Count
    For j = 1 To Image_Names.Columns.Count
        Set Image = ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(Image_Location + "\" + Image_Names.Cells(i, j) + Image_Format)
        Image.Top = Cell_Reference.Cells(i, j).Top
        Image.Left = Cell_Reference.Cells(i, j).Left
        Image.ShapeRange.Height = 45
        Image.ShapeRange.Width = 20
    Next j
Next i

End Sub

On this line:
Code:
Image_Format = ".jpg”

I want it to be able to accept all image formats or extensions.

Then on these lines:
Code:
Image.Top = Cell_Reference.Cells(i, j).Top
Image.Left = Cell_Reference.Cells(i, j).Left

I want to get the images centered in the cells.

My row height is 30 at the moment.

Thanks in advance
 

Excel Facts

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
Code:
Sub CenterImages()
    Dim shp As Shape
    For Each shp In ActiveSheet.Shapes
           With shp
               .Top = .TopLeftCell.Top + (.TopLeftCell.Height - .Height) / 2
               .Left = .TopLeftCell.Left + (.TopLeftCell.Width - .Width) / 2
           End With
    Next
End Sub

I found this code from stack overflow which is doing the center alignment for me.

Which means I am left with the dynamic file extension for the images

I tried

“.*”

But it didn’t work

With the above line, when I modified the image_format as :

Code:
Image_Format = ".*”

I get run time error 1004
Unable to get the Insert property of the picture class

The above didn’t work either.
I don’t know why this line

Code:
Image_Format = ".*”

Is throwing that error message.
I have used that to load images into an image control on a userform before.
