    Picture as part of a named range

    I am looking to make pictures a named range to be used in a drop down box. I insert the pictures on sheet 2 and name the cell range they are in, but the drop down box on sheet 1 is blank??????

    Hi, Stumped123,

    pictures canīt be inserted into cells but they will always be in a layer over them. AFAIK no chance to do what you want to do.

    can you suggest another option? I have signatures in individual PDFs. I need to design a way to insert a signature onto a form created in excel.

    Hi, Stumped123,

    for me Iīd go with VBA to solve the problem. The alternatives for that would be to have all pictures and get the wanted on top or delete the shape and add a new one on pasting the image. I think I have seen it being down with formulas but right now I canīt remember how the issue was being solved.

    Ciao,
