How to insert photo in excel

Wouldn't it just be easier to use the ISERROR function nested in an IF function to print a blank space if the function produces an error? If it is done one the first formula and copied to the rest of the spreadsheet, it doesnt really take that much extra time to do. EX: =IF(ISERROR((B4*5)/S4),' ',(B4*5)/S4) or =IF(T4=',',IF(ISERROR((B4*5)/T4),B4*5,(B4*5)/T4)) While this may seem complicated, it covers many different errors. It is one of the most useful functions I know for making spreadsheets look professional.

Now, browse through all the available images, select the image that you wish to add and click the insert button as shown in the below image. This will add the picture that you just selected as the sheet background. For Excel 2007, 2010 and 2013. First, open the worksheet where you have to add. Here's how you'll be able to turn your picture data into an Excel table. You will open Excel and click on the Insert data from picture button on the Excel ribbon. Let's say you want to copy the data from a printed paper. Take a picture of the spreadsheet, or portion of data, that you want to insert into Excel.

Q. In Excel, is it possible to insert an image into a cell (i.e., not floating atop the cell)?

A. Yes, you can insert an image into an Excel cell as follows. Paste an image into Excel, then resize the image and drag and drop it on top of a cell, as pictured below. Next, right-click the image and select Format Picture from the pop-up menu and, in the resulting dialog box, select the Size & Properties tab, and under the Properties section, check the radio button labeled Move and size with cells, then click OK.


Thereafter, the image will remain located in that cell, even if the cell's position changes when other rows or cells are inserted, deleted, or moved. In addition, the image will grow or shrink as the cell's width or height is adjusted. This solution might be used to insert employee photos into an Excel-based organization chart, or to insert images of inventory items onto your worksheet. As an example, presented below is a worksheet of how a canine adoption agency might maintain a list of dogs available for adoption. In this worksheet, Champ's image would remain on the same row as his adjacent information, even if the data are sorted or the rows are moved.
