How to convert range of image file path from local folder as comment in the selected destination range?












0












$begingroup$


I'm asking for your help. My research ended up in 2 different macros that combined will give a good utility for my work.




  1. This VBA code will insert image as comment.

  2. This VBA code will fetch Hyperlinks(Local folder path only, not web
    based URL) and paste them in destination cell.


I really tried to combine them to do one job, but I guess I don’t have enough knowledge on this.



I tried to make a single script that gets the links from source range



Set Rng = Application.InputBox("Please select the url cells:")


Then prompt for destination cells (Application.InputBox("Please select a cell to put the image as comment:).



Now This is the tricky part for me, I need the images to be inserted as comment as the 1st code does to the destination range user selects.



Can anyone guide to achieve this excellent tweak



Sub InsertPictureAsComment()
Dim PicturePath As String
Dim CommentBox As Comment
'Pick A File to Add via Dialog (PNG or JPG)
With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
.AllowMultiSelect = True
.title = "Select Comment Image"
.ButtonName = "Insert Image"
.Filters.clear
.Filters.Add "Images", "*.png; *.jpg"
.Show

'Store Selected File Path
On Error GoTo UserCancelled
PicturePath = .SelectedItems(1)
On Error GoTo 0
End With

'Clear Any Existing Comment
Application.ActiveCell.ClearComments

'Create a New Cell Comment
Set CommentBox = Application.ActiveCell.AddComment

'Remove Any Default Comment Text
CommentBox.Text Text:=""

'Insert The Image and Resize
CommentBox.Shape.Fill.UserPicture (PicturePath)
CommentBox.Shape.ScaleHeight 6, msoFalse, msoScaleFormTopLeft
CommentBox.Shape.ScaleWidth 4.8, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft

'Ensure Comment is Hidden (Swith to TRUE if you want visible)
CommentBox.Visible = False

Exit Sub

'ERROR HANDLERS
UserCancelled: MsgBox "Done"
End Sub


'Next code-



Sub URLToCellPictureInsert()

Dim Pshp As Shape
Dim xRg As Range
Dim xCol As Long

On Error Resume Next

Set Rng = Application.InputBox("Please select the url cells:", "", Selection.Address, , , , , 8)
If Rng Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Set xRg = Application.InputBox("Please select a cell to put the image as comment:", "", , , , , , 8)

If xRg Is Nothing Then Exit Sub

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

For i = 1 To Rng.Count
filenam = Rng(i)
ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(filenam).Select
Set Pshp = Selection.ShapeRange.Item(1)

If Pshp Is Nothing Then GoTo lab

xCol = cell.Column + 1
Set xRg = xRg.Offset(i - 1, 0)
With Pshp
