woodcr Valued Member United States 403 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 4:57 pm I use excel at the present time for cataloging my coin collection. I have tried some demo software for the name brands and find it is either difficult or has many features I do not need or in some way I don't like it. I have been trying to put photos of coins in excel, I have not had much luck at this because the pictures are way to large, is there a way to have the size as it is in the professional software and the clarity of the professional software. There is probably a simple way in excel but it escapes me. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 6:01 pm I couldn't imagine attempting to put a photo of a coin in Excel. For those with only a few coins, maybe then. But once you get thousands of coins, that would be a lot of work. Report this Post to the Staff
OneBowl Pillar of the Community United States 759 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 6:09 pm Are you just trying to copy/paste the image and not getting the results you want? And when you say they are too large, do you mean the image dimensions or the file size? Report this Post to the Staff

Joe2007 Pillar of the Community United States 3843 Posts	Posted 07/29/2012 10:10 pm I have the 2007 version so the technique shown in the video doesn't work. For my collection I have a tab (in the excel document) specifically for pictures and I hyperlink them back to the item in my list. Report this Post to the Staff

That would be able to handle the pictures better, and you would be able to develop whatever categories you would like (mint mark, mintage, denomination, grade, price paid, value, ect).
