I have the following hyperlink in a cell
Code:
=HYPERLINK((CONCATENATE("http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&so...OOOUOOO")),L18)
The text displayed in the cell is a postcode and the link takes you to the Postcode location in Google Maps. I have tried linking this to macros & creating a hyperlink on the button using the same code but I am having no joy. Is there a simple way of activating this using a macro linked to a shape?
How do I open a link like "google.com" / "yahoo.com through a command button in excel.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a problem and i believe someone else has this too. I have an excel file which contains near 600 hyperlinks to different websites. But my problem is i cant open more than 1 hyperlink at the time and in that way going trough 600 websites would take like 4days, is there any program / Software, plug in, or ANY way open Many hyperlinks same time so i dont need to click 1 after 1?
I tried
Sub OpenUrl()
Dim r As Integer
r = 2
Do
Cells(r, 1).Hyperlinks(1).Follow NewWindow:=False, AddHistory:=True
r = r + 1
Loop While Cells(r, 1).Hyperlinks.Count
End Sub
I have a VB macro script which needs to open a hyperlink. The hyperlink is a file on C: itself, but everytime I try to open the hyperlink, I get a safety prompt which confirms whether or not I want to open the hyperlink as they can be suspect. I need to know how to disable that prompt as that halts my macro right then and there. Does anyone know how to go about disabling this prompt message?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI need to post an Excel file to a web site that is sort of a "navigation" tool. What this tool will do is open a series of Excel files that are also on the web site, print something in them and then close them. My files have multiple worksheets, but if I use the OPEN command, my workbooks only have one worksheet (obviously, the first). So, I tried using the hyperlink(1).follow command which works and opens the file in its own window, however, as soon as the file opens, it has the focus and my macro in my navigation file stops and everything comes to a halt.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an existing button which has either a macro or hyperlink assigned to it which links to another worksheet within the workbook. I would like to change the worksheet it is linked to. I have tried right click - edit hyperlink and picked a different sheet, and also assign macro - record new macro. I have even removed hyperlink, then inserted new but no matter what it still goes back to the same sheet.
I am in this position after copying and pasting an existing button. I'm not sure how they designed it from scratch so I would really prefer to just change the link.
If I insert a command button into an excel spreadsheet on 'Sheet1', how do I make it a hyperlink button that will take me to cell A1 on the 'Sheet2' tab?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a macro that activates the following funtion in cell D1.
=HYPERLINK("#"&C2,"")
I have recorded the following macro but it only jumps to the cell the function is in rather than actually activating the function and jumping to reference which has been selected in C2.
Im creating a template for a number of sheets and I want the hyperlink for my previous/next buttons (to move forward and back through sheets) to change based on cell values.
All my sheets are named as numbers ie '1','2','3' and so on
The name (and therefore number) of the sheet is held in cell E22 on each sheet.
The 'previous' button needs to therefore hyperlink to cell A1 on sheet (E22-1) and the 'Next' button to cell A1 on sheet (E22+1)
The 'buttons' I have though are arrows from Excels shapes and I dont know how to add code to them though to start the hyperlink.
Also if i wanted to reference sheet E22-1 etc in a HYPERLINK() function what is the syntax?
Can a hyperlink (in a worksheet cell) be used to open/show a userform?
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhat is the code to activate a hyperlink in an active IE window, new tab (IE7), as opposed to a new window, which is the result of:
Private Sub CommandButton14_CLICK()
Dim strClick1 As String
Dim strClick1default As String
Set WEBPAGE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
strClick1default = Range("c51").Value
strClick1 = InputBox("Paste the weblink for the trace, or accept the default, and press OK to initiate the trace.", "ClickTrace", strClick1default)
Range("c51").Value = strClick1
If vbOK Then
With WEBPAGE
.Visible = True
.navigate strClick1
End With
End If
This code runs the hyperlink activation fine, but opens a new instance of IE, whereas I want it to use the already open and active instance, but using a new tab.
I use keyboard commands in my workbook, but I cannot seem to find one that will open a selected hyperlink.
The hyperlinks have a formula like this:
=IF(B1018<>"",HYPERLINK(CONCATENATE("I:directories", B1018),"Listen"), "")
I want to be able to arrow over to that cell and hit a button to play the file (which is contained in cell B1018 in the above example), and there doesn't seem to be a keyboard shortcut to do this.
The purpose of this endeavour is to create a cell that when the user clicks
on it, it will open up a Word file that THAT particular cell represents.
FIRST STEP:
Take the values from Column D (Tract Number), then add a ".doc" extension to
it, then put the UNC filepath (\serverdata
eports) in front of all of that
and put it in Column E. See me example below:
File path plus Tract Number plus Extension
\serverdata
eports 7-5-065-085 .doc
.... to generate something like this:
\serverdata
eports7-5-065-085.doc
SECOND STEP:
Use the value (only when the user clicks on the hyperlink) from the cell in
Column E and start up Word.
how to open a Hyperlink directly. I have writen some code which allows me to copy over certain cells from a large list of hyperlinked files. However I am struggling to figure out how to open the hyperlink without actually writing the hyperlink address into the code. The hyperlinks are the file names and not the file paths. In essence I'm aiming to just get the macro to "click" the hyperlink to open it. Once the file is open the rest of my code will work, it is just this one sticking point.

How do I create a hyperlink in an Excel 2003 file that will open a PDF file with Reader?
I have an Excel file of hundreds of Customer names and invoice numbers. I have a directory of PDF files. The name of each PDF file is the customer name, a space, and the invoice number. I should be able to have a column in the Excel file that contains a formula that creates a hyperlink to open the corresponding PDF file.
I used the HYPERLINK function and built the path and file by concatenating information. When I click the hyperlink, I keep getting an Excel error: Cannot open the specified file.
Do you think this problem is something of my own doing or some "undocumented feature" in Excel?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have created a large process map workbook in excel that links to various areas within the document using command buttons.
However, one of the things I need users to be able to see s in a PowerPoint presentation.
All I need to do is create a command button that links to, and opens this .ppt file.
The .xsl and .ppt files will be distributed in a folder to other members of the team so I need the link to not be specific to my computer. Is it possible to avoid using the full path and just use a short path such as .../desktop/tools/process.xls so that as long as they store the folder on their own desktop the link works?
I want to open a workbook, using a button, but I don't want the workbook to be visible. I'm looking for something similar to the visible = false that you can use when opening a database file. If I use the visible = true command after the workbooks.open command, it hides the workbook that the the code is in and not the one that the code is opening.
Currently I'm just using the workbooks.open command, but I just want the file I'm opening to open in the background.
