I have a service report that I would like my technicians to be able to click a command button that would then:
1 - open the camera app on their tablet (Surface Go3 with Windows 11) - CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Run "microsoft.windows.camera:"
2 - they would take a picture of the part that needs to be replaced
3 - be able to customize the name of that image and save to a specified location
4 - insert that image directly into the excel worksheet
Is there a way to accomplish this?

Thank you in advance for any thoughts...
