In my restaurant we have a master computer upstairs that collects all of the register sales info. Then we have a computer downstairs that my employees sign in and out on.
This excel timesheet keeps track of the amount of labor hours being used per day. Is there a way of doing this without putting the timesheet on a web page or putting my sales info on a web page?
This code will take the value of the active cell (which is a filename) and open the corresponding PDF document of the same name.

fPath = "M:Books"
fExt = ".pdf"
fFullPath = fPath & fName & fExt

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.

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

I'm trying to Hyperlink my documents to a folder and file name specified by different cells in my workbook
Or essentially, I'm trying to go from this...
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.
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.
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
I would like to fill in a a form on page /sheet one and have the same info on every sheet that follows is it possible?

View 9 Replies View RelatedHere's the scenario. A co-worker and I access the same file from the same online database and download it in the same manner. We have the same version of excel. We then open these identical files, we run a formatting macro (identical), but when it comes time to set the page breaks in order to get the items to print on the same page I have to increase a columns width to make it fit on one page and yet it still doesn't match theirs. It appears to have a different scale but I'm not sure of the option difference between our machines. I don't know how it could be the printer since it physically gives her different page break option than what mine does.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Age calculating formula in an excell cell, which calculates the age as on another date.
The forumala is =IF(E4="","",IF($C$1="","",ROUNDDOWN(($C$1-E4)/365,0))) where E4 is the date of birth and C1 is the date in which I want the age calculated to be.
The above formula works very well on my computer, but does not on any other computer. If I access it from my sent items or from a shared drive, it works perfectly on mine, but not on any other computer!!! I get a #value error message on all other computers.
I have tried the foll:
If i enter =ISNUMBER(C1) where the age has to be calculated, I get #Name?
If I enter =ISNUMBER(E4), i get TRUE
The above is on the sheet where it does not work ( on others computer ) and i get TRUE for both on mine. Also both have the same date formats and same time zones...
