Hello. I've created a macro that I love which allows me to replace an image on multiple sheets with the click of the button. I've been asked if I can add the file path for the image (which is saved on the network) to one of those sheets. The part of the macro that adds the image to the sheet in question is:
Rich (BB code):
Sub SwapPic()
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Costing Form")
 
    Dim PicFileName As String
    With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
        .Show
        On Error Resume Next
            PicFileName = .SelectedItems(1)
        On Error GoTo 0
    End With
    If PicFileName = "" Then Exit Sub

    With ActiveSheet.Shapes(Application.Caller)
        .TopLeftCell.Select
        .Delete
    End With
    
    With ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(PicFileName)
        .Name = "UserPic"
        .OnAction = "SwapPic"
    End With
 
    With ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range(Array("UserPic")).Select
    If Selection.ShapeRange.Height < Selection.ShapeRange.Width Then
    Selection.ShapeRange.Height = 150
    Else: Selection.ShapeRange.Height = 150
    End If
    End With
 
'Delete Pic on Admin
With Sheets("Admin Set-up Sheet").Select
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Admin Set-up Sheet")
    ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range(Array("UserPic")).Select
    Selection.Delete
End With

'Copy to Costing Form Pic
With Sheets("Costing Form").Select
    ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range(Array("UserPic")).Select
    Selection.Copy
End With

'Paste to Admin Sheet and Adjust Height
With Sheets("Admin Set-up Sheet").Select
    Range("A74:D83").Select
    ActiveSheet.Paste
    ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range(Array("UserPic")).Select
    If Selection.ShapeRange.Height < Selection.ShapeRange.Width Then
    Selection.ShapeRange.Width = 245
    ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Admin Set-up Sheet")
    Else: Selection.ShapeRange.Width = 245
    ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Admin Set-up Sheet")
    End If
End With

'back to Costing Form
With Sheets("Costing Form").Select
     Range("I4:N4").Select
     ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Costing Form")
End With
    Range("I4:N4").Select
End Sub

I now want to add that file path for the image into Cell F80 on the sheet "Admin Set-up Sheet". Any suggestions?

Thank you.

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
How about adding this to your code
VBA Code:
Sheets("Admin Set-up Sheet").Range("F80").Value = PicFileName

Also, in future, please use code tags & leave your text in black, as it's a lot easier to read.
