Use Active Cell To Create Hyperlink
I am trying to use an active cell (i.e. "Sheet2!E7") which always changes, to create a hyperlink on a different sheet to that particular cell. What is happening is I have a master list of current open POs. On a separate sheet I have the PO listed in greater detail. I want the PO number on my master list to have a hyperlink that brings you to my detailed PO on another sheet. Simply, I need a way to turn my active cell into text (not the contents, but the cell itself).

Create Hyperlink In Active Cell
I'm running Excel 2003 and I'm looking for assistance with programmatically creating hyperlinks. I have to update a Shared Workbook on a weekly basis. The cells in column D contain a catalog id and I need to create a hyperlink that includes this id in the url. What I want to do is insert a new row, enter the catalog id and then create a hyperlink that contains the id. Additionally, the text to display has to be the 8 digit id. Here is an example of the hyperlink.

Create Hyperlink On Selected Cell
I m creating a hyperlink in a sheet, pointing from the selected cell in sheet3 to a different cell in the other sheet(sheet1 or sheet2). The user is supposed to select a cell, and activate the macro. The macro should then create a hyperlink to this cell. The cell will usually contain a textdata, and the target cell will usually contain same textdata, but in other sheet(sheet1 or sheet2). In this sheet when we open the data sheet you will find a column named Feild, In the feild column when we click on any text data in a cell it should automatically redirect us to the other sheet of the column where the exact text data is present.

VBA To Create A Hyperlink Drilldown For Each Cell
I need help in making a VBA to create a looping hyperlink drilldown for each cell in the inventory_general wksht. The purpose of this sheet is to allow a user to click on a hyperlink which will then reference a macro to autofilter the data in the bin_lot worksheet to display all rows for that particular item number. Apparently, you can't select all the cells and insert a hyperlink because all the hyperlinks will reference the first cell value for autofiltering. This is what I tried but it's not working obviously. Sub HyperlinkDrilldown() ' ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:= _ "Bin_Lot!A1", TextToDisplay:=target.value Range("A2:A21").Select End Sub

Open IE Hyperlink In Active IE Instead Of New Instanc
What 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.

Create Hyperlink To Result Of Lookup
I have three columns. Column A=" Name", Column B=" Date" and Columnc="Amount". I need to find and go to the correct amount based on a certain name and date as criteria. I was going to see if it was possible to use this =INDEX(C1:C1000,MATCH(1,(A1:A1000=D1)*(B1:B1000=E1),0)) with a hyperlink, but I can't even get it to work without a hyperlink. I also tried this to find the match= SUMPRODUCT((A1:A1000=E5)*(B1:B1000=EE6)*(C1:C1000)). I found it on a website(I'm not sure how it works.) My next shot was going to be with multiple criteria vlookup, but I can't get anything more than a plain vlookup to work. I'm using excel 2007 non-commercial use.

Create Hyperlink From 2 Cells, Then Open Word
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.

Create Macro To Chart Data With Location As Object In Active Sheet
I have been trying to create a macro in excel to chart a selection of data and to output the chart on the active sheet where the data was taken (as opposed to a named sheet). So basically, I have about 300 worksheets with data, and I would like to have a button on each page that automatically charts that data when clicked, and outputs the chart to the page where the macro was clicked. However, I have not been able to figure out a relative reference that will allow me to make the LocationasObject reference simply the ActiveSheet as opposed to a specifically named sheet. See my code below, which references an output to a worksheet called "Charts". Right now, all of my charts are outputting to the sheet called "Charts", as opposed to the active sheet. Sub ConsDiscChart() ActiveCell.Offset(29, 11).Range("A1").Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlDown).Select ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Range("A1:B1").Select Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Range("A1:C24").Select Charts.Add ActiveChart.ChartType = xlLineMarkers ActiveChart.Location Where:=xlLocationAsObject, Name:="Charts" With ActiveChart .HasTitle = False .Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).HasTitle = False .Axes(xlValue, xlPrimary).HasTitle = False End With End Sub

Hyperlink Address From Hyperlink Formula/Function
I am having a slight problem copying hyperlinks. I have written some code that sorts data by date and then creates a simple diary. It originally placed the name of the event in the new diary sheet. What I would like to do is instead of copying the name into this new sheet copy a hyperlink that I have created to the company's website for that event. I can create the hyperlink using hyperlink(B1,A1) where A1 is the company name and B1 is the web address but since the new sheet will not have the underlying data I need to actually copy the values and format of the hyperlink rather than the formula.

Which means that if there's a value in the cell it will transfer the value in Sheet 2, if nothing is found in the cell the cells in Sheet 2 will return as nothing or null. I think the problem lies on the FindWhat variable. Im getting a compiled error which im not sure what is it. I've attached the spreadsheet so you get a better idea of the problem that i encountered.

Identify Active Cell And Use The Column To Add Formula To Another Cell
I have a range of unlocked cells (B5:S10) that users enter data in. This sum of this data is then charted. The formula (sum) in a cell equals zero even when there is no data entered by the user. This zero is then charted. I need to be able to plot the zeros if the user enters zeros but not plot the zero if the cells are blank. What I was attempting to do is to use the worksheet change event to add the formulas to a cell so that the chart does not plot the value until something was added. In my change event I need to know that a cell in the range (B5:S10) was changed and that if it was D7 (for example) that I need a formula enterd in D11 [=SUM(D5:D10)]. If it was I5 then the formula would have to go in I11 [=SUM(I5:I10)].
