Hyperlink To Closed Files Display Error When Clicked
Sep 6, 2006
I am automatically generating a hyperlink to another document. The link that generates is: (I don't know if this qualifies as code, but I'll tag it anyhow...)
06-09-05 0000020 Name/06-09-05 0000020 Name.xls# 'Notes'A5
with 06-09-05 0000020 Name as a directory off the current App.path, and 06-09-05 0000020 Name.xls being the name of the file in the directory. It does have a sheet called "Notes". The thing of it is, the hyperlink takes me to the right place, it just gives me an error message every time saying "Reference not valid". How can it be taking me to the right place, and still giving me the error?

I have a column with entrys of 2 kinds. Some being Hyperlinks and others with normal type data. All cells are locked with password except for cells that will possibly have entrys made in them.
Is there a way to move the active cell to R1C1 after any hyperlink clicked? R1C1 is unlocked.

I have a spreadsheet with contact information in it. I am trying to figure out a way to count how many times I click a contacts email address, then tally it in a weekly log. The end result will be a page that totals how many emails I sent each week for the year based on the number of clicks I have made to the spreadsheet.
Ideally I would also like to log the number of times the phone number is clicked too, but I am unsure how to make the phone number a live cell.

I know how to turn the autocomplete on and off but I don´t have a clue where I configure the data range or the cells to display the list when the combo box is clicked.
I am assuming that this is done in the Edit mode at "linkedCell" and LisfFillRange ... yet I can´t get this to work.

I have 1 excel workbook open. It is in a common directory with several other excel workbooks which are closed. In the open workbook, I have created a vba macro that completes various tasks - only within the open workbook. I want to modify the macro in the open workbook such that it will specify data to be displayed in the closed workbooks. Then, when the closed workbooks are opened next, the data will reflect what the macro had specified.

The below article explains exactly what I am trying to do but the formula in step 5 doesn't seem to work. I keep getting an #REF! Error.
[URL].....
I am not sure if maybe I'm typing in the quotations wrong or if the formula doesn't actually work.

I have a number of files in a directory, with data in columns A:E, and variable rows deep (200-300) that I’d like to copy to the active workbook. I’d like to have a file window open to the same set directory (ie. “CArchives” and be able to select any file in that directory to copy.
Note:
There are 2 separate ranges to copy, which must be done separately because the headings are to be moved 2 columns over - also, there is data in beteen the headings and main data in the active workbook.
Range 1: Two headings cells in A1:B1 get transposed to C1:D1.
Range 2: the files’ data starts at A4 but gets inserted starting at cell A6 of the active workbook.

I have a list of 5,000 urls and I'd like to see what the actual url that is returned for each of them. For example, if I run the url www.example.com/runningshoes, that url may redirect to www.example.com/shoes. I'd like to see what each url returns. Is there a formula/macro that I can use to see this? I'm not very experienced in using macros, but I'm willing to give it a shot if it'll work.

I have this formula in a excel file called test.xls which does a SUMIF on file "Sales By Customer v3 17-11-08.xls". It works fine when I have Sales By Customer v3 17-11-08.xls open at the time. When I close it the file displays a #VALUE in the cells
My formula is:
=SUMIF('G:FINANCEAccantia Budget2009Sales and GC[Sales By Customer v3 17-11-08.xls]DP Total'!$B$7:$M$7,Cover!M$85,'G:FINANCEAccantia Budget2009Sales and GC[Sales By Customer v3 17-11-08.xls]DP Total'!B9:M9)-'Page 15'!E9
This is really annoying as the formula works, and you need to open the linked file to display the results, otherwise you get the #VALUE. Is there anyway around this and why is it doing it??

Column D = Dates to be used in each of the matches.
Cell C2 = data-validation cell, for choosing the specific Named Range that contains the data to be returned from the closed wb.
VBA code automatically opens the closed data file and then closes it after returning the data to the main file.
find the error in the cell formula (or named range formula) that’s preventing this from working correctly? (see atttached files)

I'm compiling statistics from a number of separate workbooks. When I (or more to the point - one of my staff) open the Stats Workbook the formulas show #VALUE unless the other Workbooks are opened. I want the Stats to calculate without the user having to open the other workbooks as most users won't know which ones to open.
I could generate VBA code when the workbook opens to also open the other ones but wondered if there was another solution.

I have a large number of webpages represented by live hyperlinks in a worksheet. I need to save the webpages either as html or prefereably as text files. My current option is to save the worksheet as a html file, open the saved html file in Opera and manually right click and save these webpages to the download folder. This will save the webpage without opening it in a new window or tab.
I would like to write a macro that automatically moves vertically from cell to cell and saves the webpage without opening a browser and requires no user interaction.
I need to know the commands to have the macro read the hyperlink in the cell, got to the website and save it to a location on the local hard drive using a differently numbered filename (file1.txt, file2.txt etc)
There is no problem if a webbrowser needs to open and close as long it is done automatically and controlled by the excel macro.

I have a question about creating a custom drop down menu. In AutoCAD, I can create custom drop down menus that loads each time AutoCAD loads and i was wondering if excel have something similar. This menu would be added to the default menu list: "File_Edit_View_Insert_Format_Tools_Data...etc". I have searched online but i keep getting things about how to make drop down menus in cells but nothing about adding a main drop down menu.
What I want to do is create a menu with hyper links to all of the excel files we use quite often here at work.
I have already done this by just creating a sheet with a list of hyper links on it but would like to put it in a drop down menu instead if its possible.

I have a workbook that has a main sheet which provides stats from other sheets within the workbook. I have a hyperlink which goes to a certain place of sheet 2 and the displayed text shows the contents of a cell on sheet 2.
I know it's possible to have the hyperlink go to a certain cell on another workbook as opposed to worksheet, but I cant display the contents of a cell on another workbook as the text on the hyperlink.

I'm working with text boxes in Excel that have hyperlinks attached to defined names on a worksheet. Basically just to navigate around a large sheet.
They work fine, but when the mouse is hovered over the text box it automatically displays the address of the defined name, which looks messy and I want to get rid of it.
I have tried inserting a single space in the screen tip box, but that displays a small rectangular box. I have also tried "" hoping nullstring maybe interpreted as not to display, but it instead displays the speech marks.
Has anybody done this before? I've seen it done, but I have no idea how the model creator did it.

I am linking two worksheets together. Formulas work fine except when I close the source sheet, it turnes into #REF error. I saw in one of the posts that you can not use INDIRECT formula on closed workbooks (INDIRECT is a part of the formula in my sheet) and downloaded the changingExternal. zip file as directed. Although, after staring at it for a while, I realized that I had no idea as to what was going on in there.

I have created a Macro that lists and creates links of all the Excel Documents in a Directory (500+). I would like to extract from each of those files data from a single cell on a certain sheet. (The sheet and cell are the same in each of these files). The code I have written opens each of these files, copies the data and pastes the value in the column next to each sheet. This is a very time consuming task because of the shear volume. I feel that there is a better way to do this, I'm just not seeing it. If you could come up with a way to create this as a reference that would be great too instead of having to rebuild the entire list if the data changes. Here is the code I have written.
Sub Test2()
' Select cell A1, *first line of data*.
Range("A1").Select
' Set Do loop to stop when an empty cell is reached.
Do Until IsEmpty(ActiveCell)
Selection.Hyperlinks(1).Follow NewWindow:=False, AddHistory:=True
Sheets("Contact Information").Activate
ActiveSheet.Range("B8").Select
Selection.Copy
ActiveWindow.Close
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Select
PasteSpecial zlPasteValues
ActiveCell.Offset(1, -1).Select
Loop
End Sub
