    vlookup comment with pictures

    My sheet has part numbers cross referencing oem number, and the part number i look up has a comment with the picture of the part. I'm currently using vlookup to pull info when cross referencing. i would like the comment with picture to come with it. ideally hover over cell with formula and see picture but if i could get picture show in cell next to it that would be fine too. I've been trying to look into creating a custom function but have gotten no where.

    Thank you

    You cannot lookup a picture with a VLOOKUP, but you can do some clever things to get around that.

    The named range works if you have a FEW pictures, but if you have a lot, I would likely do something else.

    tim201110, could you please explain how you got the picture to change? I'm having trouble replicating it.
