.InitialFileName = CurDir 'directory to open the window
.Filters.Clear 'Cancel the filter
'.Filters.Add Description:="Images", Extensions:="*.jpg", Position:=1
.Title = "Choose image"
If .Show = -1 Then TheFile = .SelectedItems(1) Else TheFile = 0
End With
'No file selected
If TheFile = 0 Then
MsgBox ("Mai incearca gogule")
Exit Sub
End If

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
Re: help whit macro

I don't see why you would do that, as the part you want to add removes everything you put into the comment in the first section ???

Code:
Sub PictureInCommentSize()
With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
.AllowMultiSelect = False 'Only one file
.InitialFileName = CurDir 'directory to open the window
.Filters.Clear 'Cancel the filter
'.Filters.Add Description:="Images", Extensions:="*.jpg", Position:=1
.Title = "Choose image"
If .Show = -1 Then TheFile = .SelectedItems(1) Else TheFile = 0
End With
'No file selected
If TheFile = 0 Then
MsgBox ("Mai incearca gogule")
Exit Sub
End If
'Make comment
With ActiveCell
.AddComment
.Comment.Visible = False
.Comment.Shape.Fill.UserPicture TheFile
.Comment.Shape.ScaleWidth 3, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
End With
End Sub
