Word Macro to insert and position picture to correct place in docu D.Harper 28.07.2006 15:53:02 I can get a picture inserted into my document with a macro. But, I need to move where this picture places itself in my document. It automatically posts centered, and I need it on the right side of my document. I can't do this with auto text, I have to do it with a macro button on my toolbar. Can anyone help with the code for resizing and moving a picture once it is inserted in a document?

One line of text would align with the bottom of the picture, otherwise the text would be above and below. (Or the picture could be in a line all by itself, with text above and below). Is this what you want? If yes, if you click the "Right align" paragraph button, the picture would move to the right. If this isn't right, can you explain what commands you use on the result of "Macro3" to make it look right? > Sub Macro3() > ' > ' Macro3 Macro > ' Macro recorded 7/20/2006 by Delana Harper > ' > > > With ActiveDocument.Bookmarks(1) > > Selection.InlineShapes.AddPicture > FileName:="P:\dharper\GovOfficeTemplates\msoffice\signature\jer.jpg", > LinkToFile:= _ > False, SaveWithDocument:=True > > End With > > End Sub > > > "Cindy M -WordMVP-" wrote: > > > Hi =?Utf-8?B?RC5IYXJwZXI=?=, > > > > > I can get a picture inserted into my document with a macro.

Re: Word Macro to insert and position picture to correct place in D.Harper 02.08.2006 21:44:42 Cindy, I am inserting the picture between 2 lines at a bookmark. The document is a letter, and the picture I want to insert is a signature. I have figured out how to get the picture to insert at the bookmark. I have a couple of problems though. If I insert the picture without referencing the bookmark, then it is centered on the page. That is the code I already provided. If I insert the picture at the bookmark, it will insert the bookmark and picture wherever my cursor is currently placed in the document instead of where I have the bookmark inserted. I can try the steps you mention below to move the picture to the right, but I am wondering why the bookmark is moving instead of having the picture insert at the correct place. Also, I need to change the picture so that the signature (the content of the picture) is not hiding the rest of the letter salutation. Any suggestions on that? Thanks for any help you can provide.

Right-align it (no need to use macro code to do something you can pre-set in the document). Now all that remains is to insert the file at the bookmark. Try this: Sub InsertSigAtBookmark Dim doc as Word.Document Dim bkmName as String Dim SigFile as String Set doc = ActiveDocument bkmName = "BookmarkName" SigFile = "P:\dharper\GovOfficeTemplates\msoffice\signature\jer.jpg" doc.InlineShapes.AddPicture : FileName:=SigFile, _ LinkToFile:=False, _ SaveWithDocument:=True, _ Range:=doc.Bookmarks(bkmName).Range End Sub Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 17 2005) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-)
