Variables As Part Of File Address
Mar 21, 2007I've been trying to use combo boxes to open, then copy and paste information from specific worksheets the user requests. So far, my approach has been unsuccessful --and the suggestion to simply use the GetOpenFiles procedure was helpful but failed to address more than the "open files" part of my application. Can variables be part of an excel file address as I've tried to use them in the "strFile =" statement immediately below?
Public strFile As String
Public strSheet As String
Public strSheetName As String
strFile = "D:Documents and SettingsmccaralDesktopMP2 MONTHLY FINANCIALS_
15_FINANCIALS" _ & strSubtask + "-" + strSubelement + "2007" + strMonth + ".xls"
strSheet = "Task Order" & strSubtask & "-" & strSubelement
strSheetName = strSubtask & "-" & strSubelement
Workbooks.Open Filename:=strFile
Sheets(strSheet).Select Range("A1:P15").Select

Hyperlinking Directly To A Specific File?
Jul 6, 2009I'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.
Two Variables To Define Cell Address
Dec 13, 2006I have 3 variables right now...
Dim celadr As Range
Dim cLetter As String
Dim avgRow As Integer
and one line of code reads:
celadr = Range(ColumnLetter(LastScoreColumn) & avgRow)
When I mouseover columnletter it shows "H" and when i mouseover avgRow it shows "2"... this info is right but I think the problem may be trying to combine a string and an integer value as a range. How can I do this so that celadr is the range H2?
Hyperlinking To PDF Documents
Apr 28, 2009This code will take the value of the active cell (which is a filename) and open the corresponding PDF document of the same name.
Sub OpenPDF()
Dim fName As String
Dim fExt As String
Dim fPath As String
Dim fFullPath As String
fName = ActiveCell.Value
fPath = "M:Books"
fExt = ".pdf"
fFullPath = fPath & fName & fExt
ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink Address:=fFullPath, NewWindow:=True............
File Name With Variables
May 8, 2009I'm getting an error here. Yr and State are variables defined by an inputbox. Is this not the proper way to write out a filename with variables in the mix?
Data Source= "P:Current Quarter" & Yr & "Files" & State & Yr & ".mdb"
Hyperlinking Files With A Portion Of Name
Apr 15, 2014I 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.
View 7 Replies View RelatedAbsolute Hyperlinking Within Worksheet
Jul 14, 2014In 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 To Specific Number On URL
Sep 6, 2013My URL is a javascript page. which looks something like this:
HTML Code:Â
var quantity_in_stock_S = 2
var quantity_in_stock_M = 2
var quantity_in_stock_L = 1
and I want to hyperlink the numbers to individual excel cells
How can I do this?
Hyperlinking Info From Another Computer
Jul 1, 2006In 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?

Hyperlinking Text (paste Special On Some Links)
Feb 26, 2008I 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, 2012I 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
Get Full Address Of External File By Specifying Filename And Then Evaluate
Jan 9, 2014I'm really looking for a way to get the full address of the external file by specifying the file name in a cell and then evaluate the formula. For example,
[Code] .....
is the full address of the source file called 'Source'. My idea is: if I just type the file name 'Source' in a workbook's cell $A$1, and in cell $B$1 I want to make the formula something like:
="C:Users["&$A$1&".xlsx]Sheet1'!$F$1"
This will make my project very impressive with this feature: a user just types the file name to establish the link and evaluate the formula for results.

Function Back Variables: Function Give Two Or More Output Variables
Jul 27, 2006Can a Function give two or more output variables. e.g.
Sub a()
x = 5
result = Y(x)
End Sub
Function Y (x As Integer) As Integer
Dim B
B = ... * x
Y = ... * B
this will give back Y as a result. But if I want to get 2 or more output variables (let's say I need to get also B into sub) from one function, how should I do that?
I need this because function works with large matrix and I want to extract some values appeared in between.
