I have images from weblink inserted in Excel cells. Unfortunately, they do not update automatically. Is there a setting to change to have it update automatically ?

Is there a way to even do it manually ?

Thanks

    Hello,

    The macro is not the problem, it is the loading of the link, then reloading is what I think Macro cannot do or something I cannot achieve with Macro.

    But there are many knowledgeable users in this forum, maybe someone has come across this before and done something similar can help with this.

    Leave this post and wait patiently and if any user thinks this is possible and knows how to do it, they will reply you.

    Best Regards Fuad

    So, I could have the image in cell B1, the real address in B2, and the fake one in B3.

    The macro would load the image with the address in B3, then reload with B2.

    Then move to C3, reload C2.

    Then move to D3, reload D2.

    etc...

    Hello Serhito,

    I have tried as I promised in my first post to get it done with Macro, but I do not think it can be done.

    It is not working. Did more online search and found, the way Excel is built it cannot dynamically update the weblink.

    Sorry I could not do that for you, but if there is anything else you need to let us know.

    Best Regards Fuad
