@Riny_van_Eekelen , Thanks for quick response. I meant there must be a similar function or method to convert picture table to excel table. Otherwise, it does not make sense that Microsoft is designing a software which is less productive in Windows than in Mac/IOS/Android. ???

from picture to excel

To follow along, you can download the Excel spreadsheet that I made for this demonstration. This walkthrough and the accompanying video were done using Microsoft 365 for a PC. Other devices may work differently.

Save the image on your computer. Open an Excel workbook and click the Data tab on the Ribbon. Choose From Picture from the Get & Transform Data group, Picture From File, then browse and select the saved picture. The Data from Picture window will open on the right side of the workbook, as shown in the screenshot below.

The screenshot below shows what came into Excel from the website image. I also pasted the actual image to the right for comparison and so I could make the necessary corrections. You can see a few things that need to be corrected. These corrections could have also been made directly in the Data from Picture window by choosing Review.

There were more items that needed to be corrected than with the first two examples, and this was probably due to a less clear and formatted picture than the others. But it was still quicker than typing the data in. No matter what data you are importing, just be sure it is correct.

Do you have technology questions for this column? Or, after reading an answer, do you have a better solution? Send them to jofa...@aicpa.org. We regret being unable to individually answer all submitted questions.

Thanks for your reply. Data from picture feature is only available in Excel for Microsoft 365 version. From your screenshot, you are using Office 2021. You need to uninstall Office 2021 and install Microsoft 365 Office.

Very confusing policies from Microsoft. I have same issue as Witold above. I have MS 365 Family license, Excel shows my Excel version is the latest available (no update available when i click "check updates now") and still i don't have "Get Data from picture option" in Excel ribbon available if i am using Excel "locally" meaning using Excel 365 on my desktop (with app) and not via browser in MS Office 365 site (using Excel 365 online via browser makes "Data from picture" available (1st picture below).

Has your manager ever emailed you to put together a table or chart based on a picture of an old presentation? I can remember this occurring to me on multiple occasions over my career and I immediately knew I was in for a lot of typing!

Any value that Excel was unsure of will be highlighted in red in the preview grid. You can click through these manually on the preview grid and correct or you can cycle through them by clicking the blue Review button.

At the top of the Data From Picture Pane, you will notice that the original image you imported the data from is shown. As you review the results, you will want to reference this picture to validate the accuracy of the data.

BEWARE: Currently, Excel does not warn you if the insertion of the data will override data in your spreadsheet. I have emailed Microsoft about this and hopefully this changes prior to the feature being released to Microsoft 365.

Hopefully, I was able to explain how you can use the new Get From Picture feature to extract data from a Picture and paste it directly into your Excel spreadsheet. If you have any questions about this technique or suggestions on how to improve it, please let me know in the comments section below.

Have you been trying to get data into Excel from another source like an image, and you must copy it manually? Does any other OCR tool copy the data in the wrong format and make your work harder? You probably wish there was a native feature within Excel that could recognize data in a picture or a screenshot.

This feature will allow you to upload a saved image file and convert it into your worksheet as data. This can come in handy for many reasons; one example is if you only have paper copies and want to put data, such as tax returns, into Excel. To do this, follow these steps:

This method allows you to convert a screenshot into Excel data. Screenshots will let you get data from almost any source and put it into your workbook. Make sure you are allowed to use the data you are capturing. Here is how to convert your screenshot:

Cut back on copying line by line and undoing incorrect formatting when getting data from another source. Instead, easily insert data from anywhere by saving an image or screenshot. With this tool, you can be more productive than ever.

You can select 1 or multiple pictures using the CTRL key during the selection process. If multiple pictures are selected, the images will be inserted in multiple cells starting from the initially selected cell.

You can Create a Reference. This creates a new picture over cells that actually points to the cell with our original picture. When you select the new picture, the formula bar shows the cell reference. They are linked, so if you change the picture in cell, the referenced picture over cells will update as well.

NOTE: In the following 2 examples, the formulas use traditional cell references for easier understanding of the illustrations. In reality, the formulas would use Structured References because the tables are formatted as proper Excel Tables.

As you just saw, this feature opens many exciting possibilities, especially if we combine it with another functionality that was recently introduced, namely images in pivot tables. Intrigued? Check out my video on this topic: Create Pivot Tables Like NEVER Seen Before!

The Image in Cell feature showcased in this post is operating in Beta Phase and is only available to Office Insiders (as of Summer 2023). If you are lucky enough to have received this feature, keep in mind that it may not work properly in every situation, and certain functionality may not be fully baked.

I am developing an app on PowerApp using an excel database that is shared on One Drive.

There is a column (Pictures) in excel spreadsheet (database) that I put the image link, but when I run the App in PowerApp does not appear the image (only shows the link).

Thank you.

If that is the case, then you will need to change that property to ThisItem.Image[Image] - again, the Image[Image] is what appears to be your column name for that value. If not, then adjust accordingly.

Not really. But, you are only assigning a URL to the Image (through the information in your excel file), so it is at the mercy of all the hops that it has to go through to get the bits from the source server.
