    Question Get all pictures from all sub folders to excel

    Hello there,
    My problem is I'm adding old model images from shared network to excel in my free times. When I need a similar model then it's easy to find it also saving some time. But here is a small problem. There is dozen of sub folders in the main folder. So with my macro I'm adding them 1 by 1. Is there a way to get them? The subfolders are everyday updating by personels so I also need to check the different folders at the opening of excel.

    This is what do I do to be a example.

    Thank you for helping from now!

    Re: Get all pictures from all sub folders to excel

    so you're taking images from windows dirs and instering them into an excell sheet or book? is that it? and you want a way to loop all the dirs and subdirs in windows and simply pull all the images and and paste them in the workbook inside a loop?

    FYI - I did not look at your file.

    if you look at my excel file i think you are going to understand what do i want to do. Yes, i wanna take all pictures in subdirs in the windows to the sheet in the order with their subdir names + pictures in the folders. Please check my uploaded file if you have time you're going to understand it easily.

    Re: Get all pictures from all sub folders to excel

    ok Sky,

    Is this what you want to do? Here is what I have done:
    => written code that loops the subdirs.
    => takes the images out of each subdir.
    => places those images in the appropriate places on the sheet, then resizing them to fit in the cells for which they are placed.
    => repeats the process for each sub dir and every picture you have in them.
    this what you're looking for?

    there was a lot of stuff that your code was doing that I didn't understand. I won't mention that in this post, however, the solution I have provided probably does what you want automatically. the resizing of the HEIGHT and WIDTH of each image you will have to change, because thhat code is only literal, hard coded in. I'm sure you can fix that yourself. It shouldn't be that tough. have a good night.

    Re: Get all pictures from all sub folders to excel

    Hello Dear vba_php,
    Sorry my bad language. that's why u didnt understand me.
    Firstly I'm gratefull for your working and spending time for me,
    I'm new on the VBA, I'm still trying to learn some easy things. Probably I wouldnt do it myself.

    Okay a diffferent explaining; How can i take all pictures from a subfolder(subdir) into excel in a order with the Loop?
    But there is a small point; subdirs update everyday by staffs(adding new folders). so I need a button like RENEW the pictures or adding the last added pictures from the directory into excel.
    I guess It's more easier to do it. I can try editing myself rest of the codes.(I hope)


    Also I got an error here;

    Re: Get all pictures from all sub folders to excel

    OH wait, I've realized now, it works pretty well. just I need to write model numbers manuel to the A column. then it takes the picture from the folder. that way is also perfect too.
    The error source of what I got in previous message, there wasnt a folder name with the model number. I found it.

    Thank you so much vba_php you are awesome!
