Hi,
Just want to see if anyone has any experience of inserting pictures into
Excel using Excel 2010 onwards.
Been doing this for years using Excel 2000 (Yeah, I know a bit old but
works great) and outputs an .XLS with some example code:
cFile = "\somefolder\somefile.jpg"
cOutfile "\myfolder\outfile.xls"
objexcel = CREATEOBJECT('excel.application')
objexcel.Workbooks.Add
OBJexcel.Rows("2:2").RowHeight = 77
objexcel.Range("A2").Select
objexcel.ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(cFile).Select
objexcel.Selection.shaperange.height = 77
* add more pics into different cells
objexcel.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs(cOutfile, xlWorkbookNormal)
objexcel.ActiveWorkbook.Close
objexcel.Quit
We usually output a spreadsheet of data and leave the first column blank
so we can move through it and insert a picture.
Now we need to move to Office 365 to get a bit more up to date and
output .XLSX files. :-(
I'm using office 2013/VFP 9 and the pictures it inserts are just links
so that when you send it to somebody they can't view them. Done lots of
searching of the internet and the archives etc and found an extra
parameter for the insert:
objexcel.ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(cFile,.t.).Select
but this seems to make no difference set to .t. or .f.
There seems to be another way of doing it using shapes.
objexcel.application.activesheet.shapes.addpicture("H:\img_0536.jpg",.f.,.t.,1,1,100,100)
but I then need to move them to the correct location so still playing
with that option.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
