I'm trying to write a macro in which the user gets an pop up in which he/she can select the file which they want to upload. (mainly images) I've got an .OLEObjects setup, but I keep getting an error.
VBA so far:
Sub add_file()
Dim Fl As Variant
Dim Filename As String
ChDrive "C:"
ChDir "C:\temp"
Fl = Application.GetOpenFilename()
If Fl = False Then Exit Sub
Filename = Mid$(F1, InStrRev(F1, "\") 1, Len(F1))
Sheet1.OLEObjects.Add Filename:=Filename, Link:=True, DisplayAsIcon:=True, IconIndex:=0, IconLabel:=Filename
End Sub
Error:
Run-time error '1004':
Add method of OLEObjects class failed
What am I missing? Thanks in advance.
CodePudding user response:
Use Option Explicit
and
Filename = Mid$(Fl, InStrRev(Fl, "\") 1, Len(Fl))
