🔥 Learn Excel in just 2 hours: kevinstratvert.thinkific.com
In this step-by-step tutorial, learn how to insert images directly into cells in Microsoft Excel. Your images can now be part of the worksheet, instead of floating on top. You can move and resize cells, sort and filter, and work with images within an Excel table. This improvement unlocks and facilitates many new scenarios, such as tracking inventories, creating employee dashboards, or building games and brackets.
The IMAGE function inserts images into cells from a source location, along with alternative text. All you need to do is type the following into a cell: =IMAGE(source, [alt_text], [sizing], [height], [width]).

The Image feature is great, but for now, seems you must be an Office Insider to have access to and use it. I updated my Office 365 and still don't have the new Image function. I was all hyped up to use it for a spreadsheet I am doing that needs photos, but I am not an Office Insider, so no access. Bummer!! Hopefully, it will be rolled out soon.

Hello Kevin, thank you for yet another great video. I have a couple of questions I really hope you can share your expertise on - 1) Is it possible to create a Drop Down List in so when a particular option is chosen from the list an image appears instead of the option text itself? 2) Using a Drop Down List, can I create a unique comment (example: Associated SKU) that is tied to whichever option is chosen from the drop down list? Thank you for your time.

@BobWoldringh Жыл бұрын

Adding images from your own computer is, of course, the only useful application. I have the same need as you have. And, many images from online will not be accepted by this Image-function. A pitty.

Thank you, and interesting tutorial. But, how does one create such a URL link for an image that one has in their personal photo storage?

@YusufMumtaz Жыл бұрын

It would be the address you find in File Explorer; or if you use OneDrive, use that URL.

@AaronMarshallsf Жыл бұрын

Each storage product surfaces the url differently, based on permissions. Personal OneDrive (share icon or option, set permission level and copy link). Viewability starts with the user’s access for that url. The image is not part of the excel file, the cell is basically a web browser bookmarked to that one page.

I even resort to use formula =image.... but no Image formula comes out. Also, I was wondering if these cells can be use in the same cells as texts like a description of the image and then the image?

You can also present it as a comment (or known as "note" in later versions), by editting the whole overlay's background as the picture. It is kinda tricky to set up, but it saves space and it looks so pro....

Mine hadn't updated in the last 2 years, I finally got it updated uninstalling & reinstalling, but even with most recent version & Beta Insider, I still didn't have the Image function. It turned out, for me anyway, that many updated things weren't accessible to me because of a couple not checked boxes in Options. Once I went to: File > More... > Options > General > Privacy Settings > and checked, "[ ] Turn on all connected experiences", which also auto checks everything above it in the Connected Experiences section, then all the updated list of things including the Image Function were available and working. Of course maybe yours is checked & something else. Just putting in case it might help save someone time getting it to finally work.
