This is actually a good trick using the feature called camera. (Copy as Picture)
Well, there is no way to put an image inside a cell. Usually what you do is put inside some frame.
Find attached a gif where I show how you can replicate it and the excel file as well.

I just added a Named Range called SelectedPicture using the formula
=INDIRECT(Sheet2!$G$2)
Find attached.

Im running into having to try and pull a picture with a name that needs a space and you can not have names with spaces for cells. So I need to figure out how to delete spaces automatically to pull pictures.
Thank You for your help.- Juliano-PetrukioSep 23, 2021Bronze Contributor
What about you eplace the spaces by some character such Underscore ( _ ) or dash (-) ?
