Help! Image disappears when you click on it in Excel, with the message "Picture" appearing instead

The picture icon at the corner of the image stopped working for me. Instead try right clicking on the image and selecting Picture in Cell ---> Place Over Cell from the menu. This will move the picture out and make it visible again. I would then click on the icon at the corner of the picture to place it back in the cell. Annoying, but it works.

particle16 Thanks- this may work for some people but it is not an option for a large list that needs to be filtered. (I have approx 1500 icons.) If you ever figure out a different way. Please let me know.

particle16 I have the same issue, the biggest problem is not putting the image back.My biggest issue is that when I send the file, some images appear and others appear with !VALUE! in the cell where the pic used to be.
Some other pictures in the file appear just fine!
I suppose there is “something” there because the file is very heavy!
Please help!
