Hello, I have found this nice code here for inserting image from a sheet to header, but I have problem in using that for the first page:

Public Sub Setup_Page_Header()

Dim shp As Shape
Dim tempImageFile As String

Set shp = ActiveSheet.Shapes("Picture 1")

'Save the shape as a temporary image file

tempImageFile = Environ("temp") & "\image.bmp"
Save_Object_As_Bitmap shp, tempImageFile

'Add the file to the page header

With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
FirstPage.CenterHeader.Picture.Filename = tempImageFile
.CenterHeader = "&G"
End With

Kill tempImageFile

End Sub


Private Sub Save_Object_As_Bitmap(saveObject As Object, imageFileName As String)

'Save an object in bitmap format.

'Arguments
'saveObject - any object in the CopyPicture method's 'Applies To' list, for example a Range or Shape
'imageFileName - the .bmp, .gif, .jpg, or .png file name (including folder path if required) the object will be saved as

Dim temporaryChart As ChartObject

saveObject.CopyPicture xlScreen, xlBitmap

Set temporaryChart = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects.Add(0, 0, saveObject.Width + 6, saveObject.Height + 6)
With temporaryChart
.Activate 'Required, otherwise image is blank with Excel 2016
.Border.LineStyle = xlLineStyleNone 'No border
.Chart.Paste
.Chart.Export imageFileName
.Delete
End With
Could you please help me?
 

Excel Facts

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
Try the following instead . . .

VBA Code:
With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
    .CenterHeaderPicture.Filename = tempImageFile
    .CenterHeader = "&G"
End With

Although, to speed up things, I would suggest setting the PrintCommunication property to False before setting the properties, and then back to True afterwards . . .

VBA Code:
Application.PrintCommunication = False
With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
    .CenterHeaderPicture.Filename = tempImageFile
    .CenterHeader = "&G"
End With
Application.PrintCommunication = False

As per the following link . . .

Application.PrintCommunication property (Excel)

Hope this helps!
