Hello guys! Hope everybody is OK :)
I wanted to ask you for some help with modifications, since I'm a total newbie. Got a macro from an old thread solved by macropod, this one:
Sub AddPics()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim i As Long, j As Long, c As Long, r As Long, NumCols As Long
Dim oTbl As Table, TblWdth As Single, StrTxt As String, RwHght As Single
On Error GoTo ErrExit
NumCols = CLng(InputBox("How Many Columns per Row?"))
RwHght = CSng(InputBox("What row height for the pictures, in inches (e.g. 1.5)?"))
On Error GoTo 0
'Select and insert the Pics
With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
.Title = "Select image files and click OK"
.Filters.Add "Images", "*.gif; *.jpg; *.jpeg; *.bmp; *.tif; *.png"
.FilterIndex = 2
If .Show = -1 Then
'Add a 2-row by NumCols-column table to take the images
Set oTbl = Selection.Tables.Add(Range:=Selection.Range, NumRows:=2, NumColumns:=NumCols)
With ActiveDocument.PageSetup
TblWdth = .PageWidth - .LeftMargin - .RightMargin - .Gutter
End With
With oTbl
.AutoFitBehavior (wdAutoFitFixed)
.Columns.Width = TblWdth / NumCols
End With
CaptionLabels.Add Name:="Picture"
For i = 1 To .SelectedItems.Count Step NumCols
r = ((i - 1) / NumCols + 1) * 2 - 1
'Format the rows
Call FormatRows(oTbl, r, RwHght)
For c = 1 To NumCols
j = j + 1
'Insert the Picture
ActiveDocument.InlineShapes.AddPicture _
FileName:=.SelectedItems(j), LinkToFile:=False, _
SaveWithDocument:=True, Range:=oTbl.Cell(r, c).Range
'Get the Image name for the Caption
StrTxt = Split(.SelectedItems(j), "\")(UBound(Split(.SelectedItems(j), "\")))
StrTxt = ": " & Split(StrTxt, ".")(0)
'Insert the Caption on the row below the picture
With oTbl.Cell(r + 1, c).Range
.InsertBefore vbCr
.Characters.First.InsertCaption _
Label:="Foto", Title:=StrTxt, _
Position:=wdCaptionPositionBelow, ExcludeLabel:=False
.Characters.First = vbNullString
.Characters.Last.Previous = vbNullString
End With
'Exit when we're done
If j = .SelectedItems.Count Then Exit For
Next
'Add extra rows as needed
If j < .SelectedItems.Count Then
oTbl.Rows.Add
oTbl.Rows.Add
End If
Next
Else
End If
End With
ErrExit:
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
'
Sub FormatRows(oTbl As Table, x As Long, Hght As Single)
With oTbl
With .Rows(x)
.Height = InchesToPoints(Hght)
.HeightRule = wdRowHeightExactly
.Range.Style = "Normal"
End With
With .Rows(x + 1)
.Height = CentimetersToPoints(0.5)
.HeightRule = wdRowHeightExactly
.Range.Style = "Caption"
End With
End With
End Sub
It helped me a lot, but I need to make some modifications, and don't know where to begin.
I work with botany, so my reports are sometimes huge, with hundreds of images. I wanted to change the caption, from "Image number - file name" to "Image number - tree number".
I'm now doing this line by line, very very boring, with fields:
It's always the same, at left photo of the tree, at right photo of the number tag. Sometimes, the specimens are not numbered begining with "1". See example:
28166
The number of specimen is repeated, but the photo number is continuous... I am using fields now: "SEQ Step \r #" in first caption cell, "SEQ Step \c" in number tag cell; the following cells are all "SEQ Step \n" in next specimen photo, and repeat "SEQ Step \c" in number tags.
Thank you in advance for your atention and, if possible, help!! : pray2:
