Delete screenshot in Excel worksheet

Hi!

Anyone knows a way to delete a screenshot that has been pasted into an excel sheet? Without using move mouse to image or something like that. Should be able to run in background.

Thank you!

    Hi @vp-pengu1n 

    Since there is no direct action available in Power Automate Desktop you can think of the below ways

     

    1. Write an Excel VBA macro to delete all pictures from a sheet and call this macro using the "Run Excel macro" action of PAD.

     

    Some useful links:

    How to make Excel delete all pictures automatically using VBA (spreadsheetweb.com)

    How to delete all pictures or other objects in Excel easily? (extendoffice.com)

     

    2. Find out a vbscript that does the same and call it via "Run a Vbscript" action of PAD.
