Anyway, I wanted a piece of code that would allow me to open a default browser window from an Excel Macro.
Google turned up the following solution from here [URL] .....

This seems to work just fine.
What I want to do now, however, is something like this:

Is it even possible to write the two hypothetical functions described above?
In addition, I notice that they example given in the link that I posted also suggests ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink. This seems to work just as well, without needing the ShellExecute prototype. Is there any way that I can get a "handle" for the window that was opened with FollowHyperlink and re-focus on that window?
I have a spread sheet that I have written that has 2 html links in it. The links work, but they only open in one browser tab. How do I get them to open in different tabs? Opening in two different browser sessions would be acceptable too. I have Excel 2007 and IE 9 but the users may have different versions.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI wanted to run a batch file which does something like,
Dir /b >Test.csv
Start Test.csv
And then runs an Excel macro once the workbook is open.
I looked into this and discovered that it’s not really that possible to run an excel macro through batch file but other options were to use ‘Workbook_Open’ etc.
I thought this might cause problems because Test.csv doesn’t contain a macro to auto open and because csv’s usually don’t like macros.
I do however have personal.xlsb which opens every time if that helps.
When I click on a hyperlink inside an Excel spreadsheet, it is linked to a PDF file. When clicked, the screen flashes the Adobe Acrobat program for a split second and then disappears. But I can open the hyperlink same as which it is linked to a word file in the same directory.
I have gone into folder options and switched the PDF to open with Adobe reader 8, but that does nothing.
Any ideas of how to get the PDF to open and stay open would be most appreciated.
I tried to install adobe reader 4.0 without uninstall adobe 7.0 professional.
I use pdf reader 4.0 open the Pdf file in the window explorer, and then go to excel, open the same hypelink pdf file, and find it works now only opening pdf document by pdf reader 4.0 but not by 7.0.
But when I resinstall adobe 7.0 professional, and the problem still occurs. I have to open the original pdf file in the directory by adobe reader 4.0 again.
My case is like the following Macro in excel.
Setup hyperlink and open it . Then the problem is shown as my previous thread mentioned.

I received a USB drive from a client with an Excel spreadsheet with hyperlinks to PDF's (not sure of the version it was originally created in but my version is 2007). The PDF's are in another folder on the USB drive.
The cells with the hyperlinks have a formula to hidden cells [i.e. =HYPERLINK(C17,B17)] - in column B is the name of the hyperlink and in column C looks to be the file trial to the PDF (please see attached picture).
When I select the link, I get an Alert Box stating, "Cannot open the specified file." How I can get these links to work?

This code is supposed to open a series of files through a list of hyperlinks, run a macro then save and close. But at the minute it says it cannot find the Macro and error's.
The macro is in each file named and is named 'RefreshStats', if I open a file seperately I can run the macro fine, but it can't find it through this looping code.
Another thing I found though, is that if I put a blank Module in the main workbook (that contains the list) and call this macro 'RefreshStats' the looping works fine but based on the blank macro. So this code seems to want to look in the workbook its in for the macro.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet and within the first sheet there are lots of hyperlinks to other cells within sheet 1 (my template).
I have made a small macro which very basically makes a copy of sheet 1 (my template)
The hyperlinks in the template are explicit and as they are copied to sheet two, they still reference back to cells in sheet 1. I need the hyperlinks to be relative, so that when I make a copy of the template the hyperlinks are copied and make reference to cells in the new sheet. I cannot work out how this should be done
I am looking to extract URL's from a excel sheet.
Actually,, I have some software, which I have opened in notepad,
and then copied the data into excel.
The data is a mess.
It has had loads of unwanted characters etc. I've managed to clean this all up now.
What I'm looking for if possible is to extract all URLs to another worksheet.
As an example, I have 1 sheet that has 1654 rows of data, that goes right to
column DK.
All URLs now have 1 space before it and 1 space after it,
For example:
(space)[url](space)
or
(space)[url](space)
If possible, I would like to be able to run a macro that would
look at this worksheet and find all the URL's, then return
them into a new spreadsheet in a list,,, and if possible
not returning duplicates,
(If it does find dups if a pop up could mention how many dups deleted)
if this is hard to do then no worries at all.
As a note,I'd spent a while looking for a macro to delete all unwanted characters,, found 1,,
so for info purposes, I post it below, seemed to run fine;
but if there are any other alteratives/suggestions, I'm all ears

I need some type of vba or macro that can extract text in between html tags from a list of URL's.
For example
I have a list of urls in column A
Columns B,C,D,E - are where different types of information from the website will go.
So B contains values of text between a <title> tag </title>
C will contain values of text between a <object> tag </object>
and so forth ....
I need to create a lot of web queries to extract data from several webpages. The web pages all have the same url except the last string of numbers, e.g. ww.somewhere.com/lookup.html?type=[x] where [x] is just one or more integers that are in sequential order.
I want to create around 50 web queries (maybe more later) without doing this manually. Is there any way to put these urls in a column and have excel read through them and query the data?
I am having problems extracting URLs from data in Column (column A) and displaying them in Column B. I watched 'MrExcel's Learn Excel #664 - Extracting Links' on youtube [URL] (about 2.40 is where the final code is displayed) and it is the perfect solution with the following code:
Sub GetLinks()
For Each hl In ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks
Cells(hl.Parent.Row, 2).Value = h1.Address
Next hl
End Sub
However when i go to run the macro in Office 2007, I receive an error: runtime error 424 object required, and the 3rd row is highlighted when i hit the debug button. This is actually my first time using VBA but as far as I can tell, I replicated the exact same code which is supposed to populate urls in column B.
I have an excel file which contains 9 columns. Column A contains an article number i.e 12345 . Column B contains name of the product. Columns C and D contain Description and Specifications respectively. Columns E,F,G,H and I contain URL:s of images.
I want to do following.
1. Download all the images in a folder on my harddisk.
2. Copy the text in column C and place it under the text in column D.
note that I am a novice at excel and have never used macros/Javascript/VBA/etc
I am trying to create a spreadsheet for an online gift registry. They require that the spreadsheet have the photo's url's in a column. I already have the spreadsheet filled with my data. In the spreadsheet, Column D is filled with unique numbers, some with parenthesis, (ex. 52011, 52011(2), 34132, etc.)
I also have a folder full of images that are similarly formatted as such
"...imagesrand_name_52011.jpg". (They will be moved eventually to a webserver.) Each number in the column may or may not have a corresponding image. And the images may or may not have a corresponding number in the spreadsheet. Is there a way to generate a url automatically in a column that corresponds to the image with the matching number? And if it doesn't, just leave it blank?
