    VBA Add Picture From Web Including Alternative Text

    Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum but have been using Excel for years and hope that I can help others out equally. I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to place a web image into Excel using VBA and keep the alternative text associated with it. If I copy and paste the web image, the alternative text comes with it but both Pictures.Insert and Shapes.AddPicture strip off the alternative text. Does anyone have any suggestions and/or workarounds?

    Your help is much appreciated.
