How to link an image to the header - vba

I have an Excel sheet where I am using an image in the header. From this question I already know how to add or link images as Shapes in an Excel sheet.
Now I need to do something similar to the header, where I can link an Image to the header instead of saving the image in the Workbook (because I have a lot of images which makes the file size huge).

Code:
Sheet.PageSetup.LeftHeaderPicture.Filename
You need to set the Filename property of the _____HeaderPicture property to the path of the picture you want to use.

I would like to put an image in the header of a worksheet. I saw the ExcelHeaderFooter.Image property but that doesn't help. I couldn't find it in the samples either

word-vba: Unable to update linked image link

I have a document with two inlineshapes into a table on the document header. These inlineshapes are linked images. The folder containing these images has moved and I'm unable to change the image link by VBA code.
I'm working with Word 2016. The documents were created on Word 2003. The only way to access the images has been exploring the table cells and finding the inlineshapes into them
The inlineshapes have no field object defined (nothing)
I can update the link manually going into the File menu > Edit File Links...
I would like to be able to change the image links with vba and not having to do it manually
Well, at last I found what happened.
The images have to be accessed as inlineshapes, not as fields
the path to the image is stored in the property InlineShape.LinkFormat.SourceFullName
Changing this property value and then updating the inlineshape it worked
Sorry if I've bothered you but I think it can be helpful to other users

How do I copy picturedata from one image to another?

I have two image controls. I want to set one of the image controls to hold the same image as the other one. I need to do this in runtime, using VBA.
Me("Option" & RST![ItemNumber]).PictureData = Me("img" & intImage).PictureData
For some reason this line of code doesn't do the trick. It does not give errors, but instead leaves the picture control blank. Any help would be much appreciated.
If you use Microsoft Access 2010 or newer, you can add the image to Access Image Gallery.
Once added to the gallery you can rename it there if you want.
This name you then can use to paste it to the Picture property of the image control to assign it to.
One advantage is that you can reference those images to many image controls, but they only use memory once for storage in the database.
The other advantage is, that you can assign them like this (without having the original file on the disk):
Image1.Picture = Image2.Picture

Can I navigate a WebBrowser control to embedded image inside Excel file?

I have an .xlsm file with an ActiveX Microsoft Web Browser control ("Shell.Explorer.2").
I use VBA to open an image inside of it:
WebBrowser.Navigate Application.ActiveWorkbook.Path & "\image.gif"
I know that if I put an image on the worksheet it will be saved inside the .xlsm file. Such images are stored in the .xlsm (which is of ZIP structure) at \xl\media\ 'folder'.
Now I'd like to move the image from the workbook's path into the .xlsm file itself. How can I then address this image from the WebBrowser control? Should I navigate to a file inside of .xlsm as to resource or could I refer to a shape holding the image?
I know about solution based on copying (or exporting) the image from the shape and creating a dynamic HTML to include this newly copied image. I'd still like to find a way without copying/exporting it.
Thanks!

How do I save an image as resource in Excel and reference it in Footer?

I am trying to embed a logo in the footer of a dynamically generated spreadsheet.
My first thought was to see what "macro recorder" would provide. Unfortunately, it references an image on the user's computer. The problem is that, in most cases, this file will not exist, and I don't want the user to have to download an image for the VBA script to be functional.
Is it possible to store an image in a VBA-enabled spreadsheet as a resource and then reference it from the footer?
