    Hello
    You can copy the image Url by right clicking on the image and add that to a hyperlink in Excel. Is that what you're trying to do?

    The only way I know is to copy the image and store it locally if you don't want to link it to the image url.

    You could also get the url and use Picture Insert Link to file

    Re: excel trying to create trade list with images from url

    I really don't know how you would deal with that many images easily. To the best of my knowledge you're going to have to download them or find the link url for each and link to them in the spreadsheet. I'll put a thread in the Water Cooler to 'call in the cavalry' as they call it to see if anyone more knowledgeable than I might have a solution.

    If you want to create a smaller version of that workbook to share with us, perhaps someone can help.

    Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

    Re: excel trying to create trade list with images from url

    Hi All,

    Regarding this issue, I tried to do something with gathering and compiling information and ready VB codes from the net. This is what I came up with but not working at all. Still posting here as I am not expert in VB, but members experienced in VB coding may update and or at least look into it to see whether it is a right starting or not to solve the " excel trying to create trade list with images from url" posted by "techvision."

    The code is:
