Is it possible to make a hyperlink that will jump to a section that is not based on cells (A10, etc..) but rather on column (A) and a certain value in the cell, for instance, 2.1 or 2.2 or 2.3. The reason I want to do this is that when I have to add in new rows I do not want to have to redo all the hyperlinks since the cell shifted.

I have created this Function. It works fine but currently it is only returning text into the cell. I would like it to return a hyperlink.
Heres the code
Private Function PDFLOOKUP(pdfname As String)
Dim sFil As String
Dim sPath As String
ChDirAPI "\path o"
sFil = Dir("*" & pdfname & "*.pdf")
If sFil = "" Then PDFLOOKUP = "" Else
If sFil "" Then PDFLOOKUP = CurDir & "" & sFil
End Function
I'd like this
If sFil "" Then PDFLOOKUP = CurDir & "" & sFil
To display a hyperlink with
Link = CurDir & "" & sFil
Text To Display = S
Font Size = 12
Basically I have a web page that I want to access with a command button http://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/KVTN/2009/3/28/DailyHistory.html
The only problem is that the address is date specific - the blue numbers and probably every time that I use the command, it will be a different date.
I used this formula
="http://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/KVTN/"&TEXT(R2,"yyyy/mm/dd")&"/DailyHistory.html"
and it gives me the right web address, I just need to figure out how to make it hyperlink to that web page and then use the command button to activate the hyperlink
This is the first time I have tried to hyperlink to a web page and am lost
code that creates hyperlinks by the column or row. I Have a spreadsheet with some code which archives data into a summary sheet and creates a backup sheet of the detail. This all works really well. In the summary sheet, I have a column that is named with the name of the new worksheet.
What I want to do is to be able to create a hyperlink from this name in the column to the new, backed up worksheet. I do not want to create a list of hyper links, I only want to create on link at a time, each time I run the code.
Is there a way to generically reference a directory when creating a hyperlink? By this I mean, I have an XLS that documents the flow of a process. As an outcome of this process, text files are generated.
This process may be run multiple times. I would like to be able to create multiple directories: Run1, Run2, Run3, ...
I would like to put a copy of the XLS in each directory. I would like to put the output files from each run into their respective directory.
I would like to put hyperlinks in the XLS that point to the flat files. However, when I add a hyperlink it contains the full directory path. Something like C:MyDocumentsRun1output1.txt.
So, if I copy the XLS into directory Run2, the hyperlink is still going to point to a data file in directory Run1.
How can I generically default to look in the 'current' directory for a file? Or is there a different/better way around this? ............

Is it possible to make a macro that can search for a file with the same name as a cell's text and then link that cell to the file?
Example, if I had cells that said "One" "Two" "Three" "Four" and "Five" and had a folder in my C drive with 5 files names "One.jpg"... etc could I make the macro search a folder for that file and link to it?
I basically need a formula in one tab of a spreadsheet that if another cell contains text it will search for that text in another tab and display a useable hyperlink to it.
So I want a formula in A1 in Sheet1 that will search for the text contained in A2 in Sheet2 and display a useable hyperlink to the cell in which that text is contained, in Sheet2.
This may not even be possible, but if it is then that would save me SO much time.
I'm trying to add code that create a hyperlink to a file in a recently created folder in the path of L:Elec Dept ProjectsRELEASED FOR CONSTRUCTION".

The code currently runs with no errors, but I'm not seeing any resulting text with path / links created.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'd like to create a search bar where someone types text into a field in Sheet1 (in the sample B1), then clicks a macro button to search for that word in Sheet2.
The result should be that the cell containing that word is where you end up.
The search word shouldn't be an exact match for the result, the cell just needs to contain it.
The search bar should also be present on Sheet2, with an additional button for Find Next, so that the user can move to the next result if the first one is not what they're looking for.
I've managed to create a search function with a pop up box using the below but this isnt as effective.

I need some help in creating a search box in excel. I have 4 rows of data, and want the user to enter a 4 digit number in a text box, which is then searched in the spreadsheet, pulling up the results.
So far I have the following code..
Sub Button1_Click()
'Opens box and ask what do they want to search
searchthis = InputBox("Type in a location keyword.", "Property Search")
'Tells where to search
Columns("A:E").Select
'and then search in them whatever the user entered:
Selection.Find(What:=searchthis, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:= _
xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:= _
xlNext).Activate
End Sub
It only highlights the results, leaving all other data on the spreadsheet. Ideally id want to see only the results of the search. Is there anyway to do this?.
Also, if the search returns no results, I get a debugger message. I want some sort of error message to come up.
I've got a code that stores a variable and then searches for that variable in a different file. When it finds the answer it it jumps over and up and highlights a different cell. The problem now is that I want it to keep searching past where the first result was and repeat this process down the entire column. Here's what I have so far:
Code:
Sub Find()
'
' Find Macro
' Finds a specific key word or phrase from the search box and codes the matches green.
MsgBox "This may take a moment, please be patient."
' This next line establishes the fact that the function will use a variable.

I am trying to create a uniform stock database for my company. Thus far, I have 2 worksheets. The first is a face sheet, for the user to interact with. This face sheet has a number of drop down menus on it allowing them to select "Type" and "Size" of the item they need. This information is then translated (by a hidden table) into an item code.
The second sheet contains a list of all the uniform items currently in stock. Each item has its individual code that correlates to the code the face sheet generates.
My question is regarding a search macro.
I want the user to be able to click a command button on the face sheet, labelled "search". This would then take the generated "Item Code" and search for it on the second worksheet. I am aware that it would be very easy for them to simply copy the code into "find" on the second sheet, however it needs to be as easy and quick to use as possible.
I'm only moderately skilled with Excel, and I work primarily with the logical, not mathematical functions. That being said, I'd like to know if there is a good method for Excel to solve this problem. I've been working at it in a rather sloppy manner until I began researching some other approaches.
The Problem(s):
I am developing a site that teaches the grammar of modern Chinese at the same time that it builds vocabulary by frequency. There are a couple of issues with this:
Chinese word corpi are virtually nonexistent, and where existent, sloppy.
Chinese character corpi are more available and somewhat more reliable.
The difference between a word and a character in Chinese can be a bit hazy, but the easiest way to put it is that not all characters stand alone as word and that most words are two to three characters in length.
Therefore, using data from the character corpus and a few thorough dictionaries, I created a word list in Excel that has the words and definitions in separate columns.
I have likewise found a character corpus that I have appropriately organized by ranking and other relevant data. The characters occupy a column.
Here's the basic logical function I am trying to create in separate columns, which are organized by frequency of the character:
=IF(AND(OR(contains any characters in the character corpus from frequency x to frequency y),NOT(OR(contains any characters in the character corpus from frequency y+1 to z)),Word Column,"")
Now, I know now that I have a good workaround, so I can shorten this to...
=IF(NOT(OR(contains any characters in the character corpus from frequency y+1 to z)),Word Column,"")
The problem is that I don't see any effective means of efficiently coding the OR condition!
Is there some magic that can be done so that I can use the ISNUMBER(SEARCH(characters,word cell) function for multiple characters?
I definitely don't want to go...
=IF(NOT(OR(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("‹…",word cell)),ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Ž®",same word cell),...),Word Column,"") for thousands upon thousands of characters!
Is there a way for me to select a range of values within the SEARCH() function to allow this kind of programming?
I also had a look at the filters, but found myself facing the same problem.
I've been trying to put together a VBA code that allows me to find a number between 1000 - 10,000. I am able to find any number below 999 but can seem to find anything above 1000. I've been using the following ....
View 13 Replies View RelatedI am looking to create a VBA code that can create hyperlinks for me.
If you look at the picture what I'm looking for is an code that will take the hyperlink from the second column to the right of the column containg "Excl." (here it is column I) and attach as an hyperlink to the corresponding row in the last filled column. The vba code should check the cells in the first row to verify if data is there (Cell D1, E1.....).
In the example attached the code should take the link in K2 and attach to E2, K3 to E3, skip K3 and K4, attach link from K5 to E5 and so on, until the last row (sometimes 100, sometimes 200).
If there weren't a date in E1, but only in D1, then the links should have been attached to as K2 to D2, K3 to D3 and so on.
It is important that a hyperlink is not attached if the cell is blank. (had problems with this as well).
For the hyperlink formula I have used =IF(G4"";HYPERLINK("C:UsersTommyDropboxXYZ"&G4&".jpg");"")

I know I've done this before but having trouble visualizing today.
If I have a table as noted below with the following assumptions:
- this table will likely grow
- the 'Include' column data will change based on external criteria/formulas, so the 'Include' column will not be sorted.
- Macros aren't an option as this sheet needs to be macro free.
A

How do I build a formula that I can place in a data validation drop down to only include 'Item's that have Yes indicated in the 'Include' column?

I have attached a sample file. I would if possible like to have a hyperlink at the top of the sheet that when pressed would take you to the last populated cell in column G.

I have an array 20 Rows x 42 Columns, which contains a competition draw.
I need to search this array for a unique value and return whatever the time is in the first column on the same row as the value appears, and enter it into column C in the Womens Times sheet.
I also want to return into column D the court number from row 3.
The reason i want this automated is as teams enter / withdraw we may need to drag the games from court to court to fill gaps, so i want the Womens Times sheet to update accordingly.
I have been messing around with index and match, but cannot quite get it to return what i need.
I have attached an example ... on the sheet "Womens Times" in column A there is a list of game numbers ( #1W etc etc) indicating womens game #1 and so on. The main sheet i am using also has a seperate tab for the mens games, hence the designator of W or M on the end of the game number.
I am trying to get a formula that will search one column range “B” and pull data from another, “D”. Dates are down column “B” and some of those dates are repeated several times. In column “D” there is only one piece of data (a number) entered for each day. Eg, if 08/06/2009 has been entered 3 times in column “A”, there will only be data entered in 1 of the cells of column “D” and blank cells in the other 2.
Column B -- Column D
07/06/09 -- 54000
08/06/09
08/06/09 -- 62000
08/06/09
09/06/09 -- 61000
I couldn’t get the LOOKUP function to work properly, as there are duplicate dates in column “B” and I often got a result of 0 returned.
As I’ve only got 1 piece of data added in column “D” per day and any duplicate days would just have blank cells in “D”, I can actually get a SUMIF function to work, SUMIF(B3:B60,DATE(2009,6,8),D3:D60). Although it does work, it doesn’t feel right using it and I would prefer a formula that would return just the one cell, instead of the sum of a range of cells.
I want a macro which can find last available cell in first row and named it "Averages" and in Average column it can fill formula of average "=average(B2:last cell left to average cell)" and it can auto-fill the whole column until last row of adjacent column.
Actually I want to create a "averages" column in last available column which can find averages starting from Column B value to the last column value. for example "=average(B2:G2)" here G is last column and averages are in F.
I need a macro to create a hyperlink i.e....... I have an excel sheet with numbers in column A.....I have files in a folder that matches the numbers in column A....
How would I create a macro to create a hyperlink from the numbers in column A to the "matching" file names in a folder?
I know how to use array formulae to create a unique list, i.e.{=INDEX($G$1:$G$760,SMALL(IF(ROW($G$1:$G$760)=MATCH($G$1:$G$760,$G$1:$G$760,0),ROW($G$1:$G$760)),ROW()))}
however this is giving all the unique items from column G and I only want the unique items that have a non-zero value in column H as well. This would be the sumif of all instances that would have to be zero. I've tried to crack it and I've tried to search for solutions but so far no joy.
I have hyperlinks betwene one worksheet to another - they only only hyperlinked thourh column & rows (eg: A100) etc. How can I lock these hyperlinks but still allow users to insert new rows without losing their place?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having a slight problem copying hyperlinks. I have written some code that sorts data by date and then creates a simple diary. It originally placed the name of the event in the new diary sheet. What I would like to do is instead of copying the name into this new sheet copy a hyperlink that I have created to the company's website for that event.
I can create the hyperlink using hyperlink(B1,A1) where A1 is the company name and B1 is the web address but since the new sheet will not have the underlying data I need to actually copy the values and format of the hyperlink rather than the formula.
