Attaching File To Hyperlink
Jun 10, 2008
When you click on Cell C5 (which will say "ADD") I would Like the (Computer Browse Menu) to appear
you can then search for the file and press Attach
This will then create a hyperlink in that cell (or in a different cell) Saying "File Attached"
when you click on "File Attached" it will then open that file
I completly lost on how to do this
but here is the formula i have so far when it comes to click on the cell
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim arrValues
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Range("C5:C5000"), Target) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
End Sub

I managed to create the attached macro with help from stuff I've found in the internet. With this code, I am able to save the file and then send an email cia Lotus Notes. I need two things:
(1) The code to attach the file saved into the email that it sends
(2) The code so that the file is protected so that changes are not made by the recipient.
HERE IS THE
ActiveSheet.Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs filename:="V:TFMCO8 ReportingHistory" & [c22].Value & " " & Format$([c20], "- (YYYY-MM-DD)") & ".xls"
ActiveWorkbook.Close False
Dim Maildb As Object, UserName As String, MailDbName As String
Dim MailDoc As Object, Session As Object
Set Session = CreateObject("Notes.NotesSession")
UserName = Session.UserName
MailDbName = Left$(UserName, 1) & Right$(UserName, _
(Len(UserName) - InStr(1, UserName, " "))) & ".nsf"

If Maildb.IsOpen Then
Else: Maildb.OpenMail...........

I want to add hyperlinks to certain cells using drag and drop. I've got a userform with a toolbar that I use as a drop zone for files (called tbDrop). In the userform, below the dropzone is a label called "label2"
The dragging and dropping works as a charm, label2 shows me the file location and adds it as a hyperlink to the cell.
However, when I click the hyperlink the file can't be opened.
I've used the result string, added it manually as a hyperlink and recorded it. That worked, but i saw no difference in the recorded macro.
VB:
Private Sub tbDrop_OLEDragDrop(Data As MSComctlLib.DataObject, Effect As Long, Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x As Single, y As Single)
Label2.Caption = ""
Dim a As String
[Code]....

I created a hyperlink to a .PDF and it works when I test it. However, when I save the file, go in later, and select the hyper link I am met with a 'Cannot open the specified file' message.
I have had this prior in Excel. The hyperlink works fine in Outlook, Word, and Access...

I have an Excel 2003 application that creates a new workbook and adds hyperlinks that link up to other tabs withing the same new workbook.
Issue is that if say the default workbook name was "Book1" but the user saves this workbook with any other name, the hyperlinks die.
Is there anyway to use the current name of the file (instead of "Book1" in this example) in the formula "=HYPERLINK("[book1.xls]Sheet3!A1", "test")"

why no formula based hyperlinks will work in my workbook. even the simplest formula's. either it returns "cannot open specified file" or it does absolutely nothing even though the cursor acknowledges its a hyperlink.

Basically I have a folder with file names in the format:
"XXXXX characterstring"
where X is a digit
E.g.:
45627 -jdsuuuds.pdf
93823 Coates.pdf
98221 dagggiisa d sass.pdf
And I have an excel sheet with a list of the numbers at the start of these file names, eg:
45627
93823
98221
So what I want to do is have each cell link to the file with the corresponding number. So I click "45627" and it links to "C:path45627 -jdsuuuds.pdf"
I could do it if the file names matched exactly to the cell value, but when they don't.
It's super easy when the file name matches exactly:
VB: ActiveCell.Hyperlinks.Add ActiveCell, "C:path" & ActiveCell & ".pdf"
VB:
Sub makelinks() ChDrive "c"
ChDir "c:pathl"
For Each ce In Selection
filee = Dir(ce.Value & "*.pdf")
[Code]....

How can I change the text color within a cell when I am using a concatenation formula? I have the following formula;
=" Total Bonus Earned ("&TEXT(A2/VLOOKUP($A$1,PR_DB,2,False),"#0.0%")&" of 2006 Earnings):"
In the text function portion I would like to format the result in red. An example of the result of my formula I am seeking is as follows; Total Bonus Earned (10% of 2006 Earnings): Do I need to create a custom format and if so how do I call it up within the text function?

I have a excel Product database and a Data Entry Userform. I can gte this to work fine but need to make some improvements to make it look professional.....here's what I am looking to do...:
1) When a user add a new product using the Data Entry form, I want the user to be able to add a hyperlink to the datasheet of that product and this hyperlink will then be saved in my database in column M of that product alongwith all other details in other columns. The DataSheet files are PDF files that are stored on the public drive. So I am hoping to use a browse function or similar to select the file to hyperlink to...
My current hyperlinks look like this which I have created manually directly into the column M (not through userform):
V:PublicCOMBData SheetsData SheetsXXXXX.pdf.............

I have the following formula =HYPERLINK(("G:ProjectTest Project"),"Link". Now this works fine, However I have a cell "A5" containing "Test Project" And I would rather the link refernced the cell contents So the code would look something like this; =HYPERLINK(("G:Project"+A5+"),"Link"). or something to that effect, this obviously doesnt work hence why I am here.

On sheet4 is a list of dates and I named that range as UPDATES2013. Each cell in that range is a hyperlink. Sheet1 cell I3 is a data validation list with the named range UPDATES2013 as the list. When a selection from Cell I3 is made I can get it to follow they hyperlink with the code I have. The problem I am having is if there is no file found, then I would like my Userform1 to show. I have tried several different things with the code, but every time I think Im going to get it to work....it doesn't. It either wont show the Userform at all, or it shows it even if the file is found. I am currently putting the code to run the macro on the worksheet module using the worksheet_change event.
One last thing...I also have hyperlinks throughout Sheet1 that will lead to the same files as in the named range UPDATES2013 from sheet4. I need the same thing to happen if they click one of these hyperlinks instead of using the data validation list in Cell I3. Is there a way to make one code that will show Useform1 if a hyperlink is selected and the file cannot be located (whether it be by the individual cells on sheet1...or the data validation list in Cell I3)?Here is the code I am using right now.
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
DoFollow2013 ActiveCell
End Sub [code]....

I have the code to send the email and it works fine.
I've searched the net for mail merge and hyperlinks and have only become confused.
Here is what I want to do, attach the mail merge created file to the email, then the file associated with the hyperlink, I want to attach the actual file from the hyperlink into the email.

I read about Hyperlinks in the August 2006 "OZGRID" Newsletters but found no answer.
Assume 2 workbooks - book1 and book2, both located in "c:" (root of drive C)
Now, In book1 I have declared an HL to book2 using CTRL+K and upon clicking in that cell the book2 is opened.
After MOVING(!) book1 to a new location (D:DATA) and clicking the HL - I get an Error "cannot open the specified file".
While book1 was still in root C: - I tried to force to c:ook2.xls by typing it in the HL address window but after saving, Excel deletes the "c:" and leaves "book2.xls" only – I think because both files were located I the same directory.
I am aware that my "problem" can be solved by using the function HYPERLINK – but I would like to learn (if possible) how to insert an HL using CTRL+K that will maintain the path although moving the file which contains the HL).

How do I create a hyperlink in an Excel 2003 file that will open a PDF file with Reader?
I have an Excel file of hundreds of Customer names and invoice numbers. I have a directory of PDF files. The name of each PDF file is the customer name, a space, and the invoice number. I should be able to have a column in the Excel file that contains a formula that creates a hyperlink to open the corresponding PDF file.
I used the HYPERLINK function and built the path and file by concatenating information. When I click the hyperlink, I keep getting an Excel error: Cannot open the specified file.
Do you think this problem is something of my own doing or some "undocumented feature" in Excel?

How I can calculate the average fix time for each error code. The fix time will not be counted if it doesn't have a fix time. The distance between errors is not always the same, and the fix time is not the same.
How can I:
-Search through the Fix time and essentially add one to the count (only when it requires fixing)
-Only count the fix time for the previous error that has occurred.
-I have tried different combinations of using the MATCH and INDEX formula but have only received errors
-I can add additional calculation cells
-I can use VBA(although it will add to the already fairly long run time)

My "Drawing" is embedded on Sheet1, later on in Sheet12 I click a button that'll send an automatic email to a user. I want to attach the embedded PDF onto this email if it is at all possible??
Code:
Dim Drawing As Object
After I've declared my variables I've tried setting the variable "Drawing" to the object, this is where I'm encountering my errors mainly "Type Mismatch" or Object Variable not set...
Code:
Sheets("Menu").Visible = True
Drawing = Sheet1.Shapes.range(Array("Drawing"))
Selection.Verb Verb:=xlPrimary
Sheets("Menu").Visible = False
At the bottom of the code, this is where i pull in the object
Code:
.To = Sheet12.range("L8")
.CC = ""
.BCC = ""
.Subject = "Arrange P&D Request"
.htmlbody = strbody & vbNewLine & Signature

I have created a workbook and made a custom toolbar to perform the macro functions for the sheets in the workbook. Everything works great for me, but I want to attach the custom toolbar to the workbook so that whenever someone else pulls up the workbook they pull up the custom toolbar too.
I used the tools menu, clicked customize, toolbars, attach, selected the custom toolbar and clicked copy.
No toolbar appears.
I can select View, Toolbars, and select the custom toolbar, then the toolbar appears, but when I close the sheet the toolbar remains.
When someone else opens the sheet, the toolbar appears without any "buttons." It is an empty toolbar.
The help text isn't helping because the instructions for attaching a custom toolbar to a worksheet (tools/customize/toolbars/attach/copy) do not attach the toolbar to the workbook.

i've got an excel workbook called..lets say.. "Database"..it contains spreadsheets with lots of exciting data..and Users view(and occassionally add to) this data through a variety of userforms.
what i'd love to know is whether theres any way to "bind" userforms to a specific workbook?
i.e. can i make it so my userforms "MIGHT" be displayed (might bcos it depends on the users selection)...while "Database is the active worksheet".....but not displayed if it isn't...e.g. if they open another excel workbook..
at the moment my userforms are present in every excel project (while Database is open and the forms are being used), which is clearly bad since they block half the screen....
does anyone possibly know how to have Userforms only show up when a specific workbook is being used?i've been stuck on this for a couple of days now and its driving me crazy.
equally if you don't think its possible, i'd love to know so i can stop wasting my time on this....there is a way around the problem..but it involves putting my "Main Menu" -which opens all my userforms- as part of an excel spreadsheet instead of a userform..and having it userform based just makes it look so much better.
