Hi adikademani,

To place the image in the active cell instead of Q1 then replace:
Range("Q1").Activate
By:
ActiveCell.Activate

Trowa

Hi Trowa,

thanks for the quick reply, but the image is still not getting inserted into that particular cell. For example, how do i insert a picture into the Cell Q1 ?

There must be some misunderstanding, because the code you posted does that. Where does the picture go if not Q1?

Hi Adikademani,

You included the x within the path string. Since it is a variable you need to place it outside like:
"G:\PEP\04.Kaizen\KAIZEN Audit\02 Auditfragebögen\5S questionaire\" & x)

Also make sure that you enter the full file name (so with extention) when prompted by the inputbox for the code you created.

Best regards,
Trowa
