Photos not showing correctly within Excel

Question

Hi,

I have been having the same issue over and over since installing office 13.

When ever i look at photos that have been inserted in the document i can see the boarder (to indicate they are there) but the image itself will not show up, or if it does only a partial amount of the photo is showing?!

Any ideas or help that can stop this happening as it is slowing my work load down dramtically!

Cheers

Steve

Answer 1

When you're inserting picture, try doing this shown in the image below

Select the picture from the folder and instead of clicking insert > select the drop down arrow and select Link to File

This might help

If this still doesn't work, you might need to update your pc graphics drivers 

Thanks!

Answer 2

Try resaving the file with .xlsx extension and reopen again.

Answer 3

Yes, i can copy and paste into other office files - but when I have hundreds of docs & thousands of pictures to review, it makes it extreamly difficult to keep doing this!

This is what is making me think i have the issue with excel, rather than any other program.

Answer 4

since you're able to select them, can you try copying/pasting it into different file (Ms Word/ Paint) ?

Answer 5

Hi Ketul,

Thanks for the response!

But I'm not trying to insert a picture,

This is a file i have recivied and it seems to be across any excel files that i open, its happened since i installed the latest office!
