Here is an easy way to insert an image into an Excel cell, in case you need to insert a company logo or product images in Excel.
Insert a picture into an Excel cell
The insert operation in Microsoft Excel allows you to insert shapes, icons, and images from your laptop and the Internet into Excel.
This can be useful in a number of work-related situations. For example, if you prepare an inventory of assets, you may want to have an additional column with photos of the assets.
After inserting sequences, you can embed them in Excel cells, allowing you to transfer, resize, hide, highlight, and filter them using cells.
So let's see the steps to insert a picture into an Excel cell and lock the picture into an Excel cell.
1. Insert an image into an Excel cell
Follow the steps below to insert an image directly into an Excel cell.
1. Open Excel file Archive in which you want to insert the image
2. Push the button Insert tab > click on Illustrations and choose Photos possibility in the Illustrations group.
3. On the “Insert Picture” screen, choose the Image (or Photos) you want to insert and click the button Insert button.
The selected image will be immediately available in your Excel file.
2. Resize an image to fit in an Excel cell
By default, images inserted in Excel remain on their own separate layer and you will find them floating or shifting impartially in the cells.
This allows you to resize the image to fit the scale of the cell(s) in which it is placed.
A simple method to combine an image within an Excel cell is to first enlarge the Cell > press the button ALT key > Transfer the image in the cell.
3. Attach an image to a cell in Excel
If you insert a picture into an Excel cell, the picture will not remain in the cell while you move or resize cells in the worksheet.
You can fix this by simply associating or locking the image to the Cell it was positioned in.
Once the image is attached to the Cell, it must be transferred, resized, overlaid, destructured and filtered with that Cell.
1. Click the insert button successfully image and selected Image Format in the context menu.
2. In the Picture Format window, choose Transfer and measurement with cells possibility in the “Properties” section.
After this setting, the image will be locked to the cell it was positioned in and will be moved, resized, hidden, deleted, and even filtered with the cell.
Word : To filter photos in Excel, you need to mark or identify the photos.
