Hyperlink To Embedded Object
Mar 28, 2008
I'm using Excel 2003 and have a spreadsheet that I want to distribute to a handful of people around the globe.
I want some cells in the page to link to various PDF files which I need to distribute with the worksheet.
I can embed the PDF files no problem, but I need each link to the embedded objects to take up no more vertical space than one row of text (without an Icon) - ie I need to be able to access the object through a "hyperlink style" item.
I can't figure out how to do this, as the hyperlink function does not seem to permit linking to embedded objects.

Setup: I have a ppt presentation with several MS excel worksheet objects embedded.
Goal: I am trying to write a macro in ppt which opens an embedded object, then once it is open applies an existing excel macro that is in my personal excel book.
The code from ppt "record a macro" stops at ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange.Shapes("Object 8").Select
ActiveWindow.Selection.ShapeRange.OLEFormat.DoVerb Index:=1
How can i let it know that the active window is an excel sheet? and if i get there, can i run a macro once in?

what I am doing is running a parameter query. Based on the users selection it pulls in and embeds a pdf file based on a link put into cell A1. The problem is when the user selects another file. My current process deletes all of the oleobjects on the page (because I couldnt figure out how to just delete this pdf embedded object as it is named differently each time it is pulled in) My current process worked fine up until I needed to add some controls (radio buttons) now when it loads the next file it deletes the radio buttons. Is there a way to name this embedded pdf file so that I can then delete only that object? or is there a fundamental better way to handle this?
below is the section in question
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim KeyCells As Range
Set KeyCells = Range("A1")
If Not Application.Intersect(KeyCells, Range(Target.Address)) _
Is Nothing Then
Dim wsh As Worksheet
For Each wsh In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
wsh.OLEObjects.Delete
Next wsh
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0).Range("j1").Select
ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(Filename:=Range("a1").Value, Link:= _
False, DisplayAsIcon:=False).Select

I have embeded a PDF file in an Excel Worksheet. When I double-click to open the PDF file the I get an error message: "Cannot start the source application for this object." However, the pdf file opens anyway. how to prevent the error message from displaying (without stopping real error messages)? (...happens in Excel 2000 and Excel 2003) NB: I researched this site first - user "Ed" raised the same issue 27/1/03 - but it doesn't appear to have been resloved.

I have a sub which loads a bitmap image onto a sheet, lets say to sheet1 ,cell B2, the reference sheet1!b2 is held on sheet2 in column A.
how to add a hyperlink to the image so that when it is clicked it looks at looks at the value on sheet2 and creates hyperlink to that cell, effectively selecting the cell underneath the image. I've tried this with text - using the following in a cell:
=HYPERLINK("[LoCQ34.xlsm]indirect(Sheet2!A2",Sheet2!B2) - this works for a text link, using the add hyperlink from the right click menu but doesnt do what I want with a bitmap, and I'm not sure how I'd do this in VB.
So, i would like to know it can it be applied to an image, and how can it be done in VB as the value in Sheet2 changes?

I'm getting the following error:
"Object library invalid or contains references to object definitions that could not be found"
I wasn't getting that error last night and I'm not sure what I may have done to cause this error.
It seems to be cause by code running on one sheet of my workbook, but I'm not really sure about that. I'm still a bit of a novice at VBA.
I'm using Excel 2002 SP3 and I'm running MS XP Home as my OS.
Do you have any ideas what can cause this error and/or how to trace down the offending objects/code?

I 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.

The jist of the problem is that employees are paid their normal wage up untill 37.5 hours of work. From 37.5 to 40 hours of work they are paid 1.5 times their wage. Any hours over 40 are paid at 2 times the regular wage.
So i need a formula that can work out their total pay. Im not sure what i could put in a dummy document to help you since it would just be one cell for their hourly wage, one for their hours worked and then one for the calculation. so you can reference any cell as an example and assume £6 as hourly rate

Working on automating a data update process for my department (well, for the Italian speaking analysts anyway). I'm trying to import data from an embedded PDF to my Excel 2007 worksheet - I only need the data on the PDF, but if the whole screen can be scrapped I can clean it up in my code.
Any ideas if/how I can do this?

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
.Attachments.Add ("Drawing")

I have a worksheets (named Graphs) that contains 12 pie charts, 8 column charts and 4 line charts. I would like to create some VBA code to loop through all these 24 embedded charts and modify only the pie charts. I'm OK with the code to do the modification (which is to set their plot area size and also to delete the title), however, I have no idea how to do the initial loop to select only the pie charts. I'm sure there's a much better way then hardcoding in each of their chart names.

I received an Excel spreadsheet that has contact info (name, address, phone, email, etc) but the email isn't visable unless I hover over their first name (a link) and I can see it in there. If I click the first name link, it opens a new Outlook email message. (Cool, but not what I need...)
When I copied the whole spreadsheet and pasted it as a tab into an existing Excel document of my own, the email addresses are no longer there, it now shows the path to where my original document is stored. Where did the email part go? how do I extract the emails out? Ideally I'd like to put them in a new column next to their name...sorted in my original document or in the tab...either one.

I am trying to create a macro to add to a button that will open an embedded document (word, PPT, and excel).
I recorded the macro and it works fine the first time I try to test it but after it tells me that there is an error...
I'm not exactly sure what to do. Unfortunately, I could not find what I needed on youtube
Error: It talks about the object being out of range and allows me to debug... the code that is in the developer is:
Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
'
'
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Windows("Worksheet in Book1").Visible = True
Selection.Verb Verb:=xlPrimary
ActiveWindow.Close
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
End Sub
The Windows line is what it tells me to fix.. from there I am lost... Is it because I am trying to do a double clicking function?

I am trying to wrap up a project. The project consists of taking the input values from a userform and entering them into various Word documents and Excel workbooks. The procedure is run from Word. I have no issue completing this part.
However, there are a few Word documents that have an Excel worksheet embedded into them. How can I manipulate these worksheets using VBA? I have attached an example for your reference.
I have found out how to get into edit mode, but I still do not know how to actually edit the worksheet.

This will take a mixture of at least HLOOKUP and Average
I have a table of 2 columns; 1 column is dates from Jan. 1st to Dec 31st; 2nd column is inches of rain on each day. Several are 0 inches but I am needing to take the the average of each month of only the days that have greater than 0 inches of rain.
Getting the average of each month is easy but canceling out the 0 inch days is throwing me off right now.

I tried recording a macro (Absolutely nothing is recorded as far as the ticking and unticking goes) and searched for code but came up empty. What VBA code would I use to untick such a TickBox (TickBox1, Sheet22)? I'd conversely also like to know what code to use to Re-tick it.

I have a workbook with two worksheets. On the second worksheet I have placed a chart, in which several shapes (text boxes) have been added manually. With the help of a TickBox in a UserForm on the first worksheet one can hide / unhide one of those shapes (on the second worksheet). By using the Macro recorder I finally came to this code fragment:
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Worksheets("Second One").ChartObjects("Chart 41").Activate
ActiveChart.Shapes("Text Box 4").Visible = False
Worksheets("First One").Activate
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Obviously another part of the code is used to make the shape visible again. roblem: The screen flickers. And I want to be able to do this without flickering. Searching Ozgrid revealed that the use of "Activate" makes the screen flicker. Hence, my question: How can I hide / unhide a shape (textbox) in a chart on another worksheet without of using "activate"? r: Any other way to hide / unhide a shape (textbox) in a chart on another worksheet without flicker?

I am working on a project. As part of project, emails were sent out to an experimental group for a cost survey. I have to combine data and do analysis now. I am given two excel spreadsheets (sample of both attached).
In sheet 1, column B contains email name. For instance, first email name (Row A2) is ‘96 '07 Bustello Third email name (Row A4) is 90-pt Panda Express '10
Based on this email name, I need to create a new column that contains only company name i.e Bustello against row A2, Panda Express against Row A4 and so on.
I thought of using ‘Text to Column’ function in the beginning. However, since there is no common character in all email names and no fixed width at which company names are embedded in email name I could not use it.
For now, I am doing it manually. I have 10,000 email names and it is becoming hard to do it manually.
Although I am given another sheet (sheet 2 of sample), which has two columns: Company number and Company Name, there is no common variable that I can use to do VLOOK UP therefore; I am not sure how to make use of that sheet.
