Hyperlinking Directly To A Specific File?

Jul 6, 2009

I'm having trouble creating a hyperlink that will automatically take a value from a cell and link me directly to a file of the same name across the company server.

For example in column B I have a number along the lines of

43FG2345678

In a folder on the server I have a word document that goes by that exact file. I need to create a hyperlink that looks up that value and searches for that specific document in the location file, and then directly open that file.

The value in column B will change with each line so as I copy the formula/hyperlink down I want it to automatically go in and replace the text and then lookup the file.

I have tried the concatenate function within the hyperlink but not had much luck.

Writing Specific Content From Excel To External File Of Specific Name

Apr 29, 2013

I have a worksheet that contains two basic columns of data, A and B. What I would like to do is based on the value in column A, I would like to copy the contents of column B to a textfile (preserving the basic line structure and hopefully without any extra characters like quotation marks attached). So for all the values in column A = 'Account', Id like to take all the corresponding values in Column E (for example) and save them to the same file, preferably where the filename itself as 'Account.xyz'. And I would like to do this for all unique values in Column A, that is do it for 'Account' and 'AccountPrivilege' etc. Note Column A is essentially presorted alphabetically already. There are actually 1000s of rows with hundreds of unique A values so Id like to find a way to automate this process.

A
B

1
Account
Company Information

2
Account
Company

Hyperlinking Files With A Portion Of Name

Apr 15, 2014

I have a few thousand files that I'm trying to hyperlink into excel. The files are named with a date at the end of it. I want to be able to hyperlink to that file just by looking up the name without the date portion. So basically I'm asking if I could hyperlink a file with only a part of the name, and yes the names are distinct even without the date. I now am loading all of the file names into a spread sheet via a VBA code, however with almost 10k files that process takes longer than I'd like.

Absolute Hyperlinking Within Worksheet

Jul 14, 2014

In trying to make an alphabetized record of all inventory for work, I ran into a snafu when creating shortcuts for other users to the different letters.

I hyperlinked something like a table of contents together and hyperlinked them to the cells, so clicking on B in the table of contents takes you to cell B64. I want to future-proof it with absolute references but haven't been able to.

I tried right clicking and typing in the cell name--but when I add more cells, instead of moving to B72 like it should, the hyperlink stays in B64, which is now part of the As.

I also tried: =HYPERLINK(A$64,"B") as well as =HYPERLINK(B_Start,"B") by naming the cell. The name went to B72, but the link stayed in B64

Hyperlinking Text (paste Special On Some Links)

Feb 26, 2008

I have a problem in that in using the paste special on some links I created using HYPERLINK/VLOOKUP formulas the hyperlinks themselves have gone (ie nothing happens if you click on the data).

What I want is a macro that can turn a cell's contents into a hyperlink (i.e the location and friendly name are the same) by means of a simple keyboard stroke. I tried doing this using the macro recorder, but it didn't recognize when I was trying to paste the text into the Insert Hyperlink address bar and it just recalled the name of the address in the VBE window as if I'd written it in manually.

Hyperlinking Multiple Cells Based On Another Cell Contents

Feb 23, 2012

I have just started to learn how to use vba in microsoft excel. Over the past few days i have been creating a drawing register and have incorporated multiple routines based on searching this forum. Up until this point i have foud everything i needed on this forum, but now i cannot work out how to creat a routine that does the below.

The setup
*I have a folder called Zircon Plant
*That folder contains 3 folders 01. Superseded, 02. PDFs and 03. Documentation (the 01. Sup...etc. is the actual folder name, the 01, 02 and 03 isnt distinguishing the 3 folders)
*The Register is located in 03. Documentation
*The PDFs i want to hyperlink to are located in 02. PDFs

What i want to do
*i have 2000 rows of drawing names
*the drawing name in excel is spread over 5 side by side cells on each row (rows 21 - 2020) so for example the first row the information is in cells (H21, I21, J21, K21 ,L21)
*the cells i want to contain hyperlinks are V21 - V2020

so what i want is when excel opens up (i already have another script running at startup so i will be placing this after the other startup routine i have) i want it to search in folder 02. PDFs using the contents in (for example the first row (21) and colums HIJKL contain (H21)4CP(I21)-(J21)D(K21)-(L21)55000) each row and combine those cell contents to find the file name 4CP-D-55000.pdf. I then want it to go down every row until row 2020 untill it has added all pdfs.

(The second row is (H22)4CP(I221)-(J221)D(K221)-(L21)55001.....file name would be 4CP-D-55001.....third row would be 4CP-D-55002 etc...)

If such a pdf with that name doesnt exist, i want the cell (for example v21) to read "PDF not available"

based on a search here i have been able to do this for 1 cell, but dont want to do 2000 seperate routines. the current routine i have for it to work on one cell is

' Select PDF range
ActiveSheet.Range("u21").Select
' Promt PDF Hyperlinking
ActiveCell.Hyperlinks.Add ActiveCell, "I:DraftingAs Built4CP - PinkenbaE - ElectricallZircon Plant02. PDFs4CP-D-55000.pdf"

I also have multiple sheets. the first sheet is D - Documentation. I will eventually copy this routine 4 more times as i will be able to work out how to apply it to the other sheets

Sorting By Variable File Instead Of Specific Named File?

Jul 18, 2014

I recorded what I wanted but don't know how to generalise it so regardless of sheet name it can be sorted instead of specifically looking for "leanne final test" worksheet and sorting it by precise cells.

I have starred the section out so you don't have to focus on the rest of the code. Initally I ask for the file to be opened using WeeklyFN, would I need to use it again somehow ?

Unhide Row Directly Below

Jan 9, 2009

I was wondering if it's possible to unhide a row directly below one that is visible?

I am creating a template for users that allows them to choose which lines (rows) they would like to use. They then hit a button to hide all the other lines they don't wish to use.

For each row that is visible I then need the row directly below it to become visible so that the user can enter associated information.

I'm stumped on how to do it. I have the user entering "a" in column A for any row they wish to keep - but I'm not sure how to incorporate this into unhiding the row below (or if I'm on the wrong track with my thinking).

How To Control Many Loops Directly After Each Other

Aug 7, 2012

How I can control many loops directly after each other. For example I have this script:

If (Cells(x, column) > 35 And Cells(r, column) < 25 Then

If (cells(x, 75) = "GotU") Then
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Else

If (cells(x, 85) = "GotYah") Then
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Else

If (cells(x, 95) = "GotYou") Then
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
End if

Is this script correct if I want the loops to check all data that I write (for ex. GotYou, GotYah etc.) or do I need to end every if before next if? I want that the loops makes all 3 controls.

Print A Userform Directly

Jun 15, 2006

I have developed an extensive program running on excell but with the user only seeing userforms. I would now like to build in a "print screen" button, but have no idea how to do this.

What it needs to do is capture the userform and all its entries (as it is displayed on the screen) and send this to the printer to be printed as a picture.
I am assuming that there must be code available so that when ever the user clicks this button, the standard windows (or excell) print screen appears from which he will be able to choose the printer etc.

Why Cannot Directly Set Wrap On Range Of Cells

Jun 28, 2014

I would like to simply reference this range of cells and change one formatting attribute.

VB: Sheets("flaggedSite report").Range(Cells(RowV, 2), Cells(RowV, 6)).WrapText = True

I get a runtime error 1004 with this???

VB:
With Sheets("FlaggedSite Report").Range(Cells(RowV + 1, 2), Cells(RowV + 1, 5))
'.Range(Cells(RowV, 2), Cells(RowV, 6)).WrapText = True
.WrapText = True
End With

This one runs but gives me unpredicted results. This one I think changes the format on my original sheet vs FlaggedSite Report.

VB:
With Worksheets("FlaggedSite Report")
With Range(Cells(RowV + 1, 2), Cells(RowV + 1, 5))
.WrapText = True
End With
End With

All I want to do is with as small a code as possible make a change to an inactive sheet of my choosing to the wrap format of a range of cells.

Get Data From Cell Directly Across Formula?

Nov 7, 2013

Lets say we have prices in column (B) and in column (F) I want to insert a formula that says:

In the same row, look at cell in column (B). If price is between 1000 and 8000 then put 2.00 if price is between 500-999 then put 0.50 if price is between 1-499 then put 0.00

I need to achieve this using something like =OFFSET(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW(), COLUMN())),0,-1) but I am not sure how its done.

I will be using this formula in a find and replace macro. So I can NOT make the typical drag and fill formula.

Save Files Directly From Hyperlink

Nov 6, 2006

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.

Paste CSV String Directly Onto Range

Mar 17, 2014

I am playing around with code to extract stock prices from Yahoo! Finance.

The data is extracted from Yahoo in the form of a CSV string, for example:

"HSBC HLDG",596.80,"-0.22%"

I've written code to split the string into cells as I'd like, but just realised that if I copy the above text manually from the Immediate Window (on the back of a Debug.Print) and paste it anywhere on the worksheet Excel automatically splits the string and reformats the values.

Although my code works perfectly I was wondering whether there is a shorter way of doing this, i.e. by just coding up the above action? I've tried a few routes but haven't found a solution yet.
