Use Script To Programmatically Create Hyperlink
Jan 31, 2014
I want to use script to programmatically create Hyperlink in multiple cells. The Hyperlink will trigger a macro event and run a simple command using the "PC Name" as input variable. The Hyperlink should have:
-Text to display: - different "PC Name" in each cell
-Type the cell reference: - corresponding to the cell where the Hyperlink is inserted
-Link to: - Place in This Document
I tried using cell formula, but it always default to "Existing File or Web Page".

I created a macro to create command buttons on sheet 1 of my worksheet. The created buttons using oleobject and class type: forms.commandbutton1, creates an object with no properties on the sheet (i.e. if you right click on it excel thinks it's an object and not a control.) Is there a way to create it as a control?

I have a workbook open and my A column cells are filled with (example) Mike-1 in the first row Mike-2 in the second row and so on. Now I have another folder on the computer with Word documents that I want to hyperlink to. The corresponding Word file is named mike1. So I want Excel to go through column A and Hyperlink to the corresponding Word file.

I'm trying to create a link to a folder and to insert it in a cell. The folder name is: "C:DISCO CTEMPLATES #1". I tried to copy that text and paste it into the cell. Excel recognizes that as a hyperlink but when I click the cell a message appears: "Cannot open the selected file" Could the problem be because of the "#" symbol?

I am using MS Excel 2007.
I have column "A" a list of my PDF filenames and File path in Column "B". I want to establish hyperlinks for each of these PDF filenames (column A) and link it with the file path that I generated in Column B.
=HYPERLINK(B1,A1) did it very well, but unfortunately when converting to PDF, the hyperlink is not working, and I believe the conversion retained is only in text, so now my only resort is hardcoding it by VBA.

I basically need a formula in one tab of a spreadsheet that if another cell contains text it will search for that text in another tab and display a useable hyperlink to it.
So I want a formula in A1 in Sheet1 that will search for the text contained in A2 in Sheet2 and display a useable hyperlink to the cell in which that text is contained, in Sheet2.
This may not even be possible, but if it is then that would save me SO much time.

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).

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.

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.

sometimes i'll have some text i want to show in a userform textbox. let's say the text happens to be in a sheet named story, and it is in A1 of the worksheet.
A1 says, for example:
" The next big thing can be found by clicking here "
if the note above were on a web page, all you'd have to do is click on 'here' and you are off the the next big thing. but so far, when i use this code to bring the text in story!A1 into the userform textbox all i get is the text. there is no 'clickability' as it were.
Me.textbox.Value = Range("story!A1").Value
is there some bit of code magic one can use to make a userform textbox function with html code?

How can I change the text color within a cell when I am using a concatenation formula? I have the following formula;
=" Total Bonus Earned ("&TEXT(A2/VLOOKUP($A$1,PR_DB,2,False),"#0.0%")&" of 2006 Earnings):"
In the text function portion I would like to format the result in red. An example of the result of my formula I am seeking is as follows; Total Bonus Earned (10% of 2006 Earnings): Do I need to create a custom format and if so how do I call it up within the text function?

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

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.

VB:
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:="Work_Log!" & Sheets("Work_Log").Cells(b, 1), TextToDisplay:="View"
I want this to link to Work_Log!.Cells(b,1), however instead of grabbing the specific cell, it is pulling the contents of the cell and creating a URL of that. For instance if b = 1 and cell A1 contains the value "yellow" then this code is giving me the hyperlink to WorkLog!Yellow when I want it to read WorkLog!A1

I have a macro that would create a hyperlink for every one of the files in a folder that a specific cell gave the url address for.
Recently I got moved to a new pc and forgot to migrate my macro's over. In combing back through previous threads... I found the macro, but now it won't work.
[Code] ......
The error that I get is:
Compile error:
Invalid use of property
I get this error at row
Range (Cells(Rows.count, "U").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Address)
Why did the macro used to work and not anymore?

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.

I want the macro to:
1. Create a new worksheet when data is entered into a cell (ie. entered text "ACC2013" into cell A5)
2. Rename that worksheet to correspond to the data in the cell (ie. change worksheet name from sheet2 to "ACC2013")
3. Create a hyperlink between cell A5 and sheet2
I'd like for this macro to loop through a range of cells so I don't have to have a long code. Let's say my data range is from A5:A23. If this requires multiple macros that is fine.

Until recently I successfully used this code to navigate to a web page and populate some of it's boxes, before programatically pressing the page's "Validate" button, whereupon the page would test the data I'd populated the boxes with, and come back with an answer to tell me if there were any errors in my data:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim uf1_cbutt1_click_ie As Object
Set uf1_cbutt1_click_ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
Can anyone shed any light on how I may be able to programatically navigate with VBA to the page I want? I'm also having trouble finding the new name of the "Validate" button - and how to programatically click it.

I have the following function that looks at a range of data and deletes duplicate entries in each column. I want to change the range that is examined programmatically, rather than having to retype it for each range in this huge sheet! I have subtotaled and counted the rows in each range, so I know how many there are, but I'm stumped as to how to increment teh range correctly. I'm attaching a small sample of my data. The full sheet is 30,000+ rows and 94 columns.
Sub DelDups2()
Dim rngSrc As Range
Dim NumRows As Integer
Dim NumCols As Integer
Dim ThisRow As Integer
Dim ThatRow As Integer
Dim ThisCol As Integer
Dim J As Integer, K As Integer, x As Integer
Set rngSrc = ActiveSheet.Range("c68", "cr70")
NumCols = 94
NumRows = rngSrc.Rows.Count
ThisRow = rngSrc.Row
ThatRow = ThisRow + NumRows - 1
ThisCol = rngSrc.Column
For x = 1 To NumCols
For J = ThisRow To (ThatRow - 1)
If Cells(J, ThisCol) > "" Then................

I have a VBA procedure that I need to be able to link/attach to an excel file which is created on the fly, and I need to do this programatically / on the fly. Basically, currently from my front end app, I output the necessary data to excel, and then format that data in excel using vba code sent through OLE to excel. Right after the formatting is done, I would like to then send the necessary vba commands to excel that would take my existing VBA sub routine, link it somehow to my excel file (by inserting it as a macro?, by registering/linking it as a .bas file?, any other options/ideas?), and then give the user a button or shortcut in the excel file that will run that VBA sub routine.
The underlined part above is my main goal here, and I already have the rest covered. I know there is more than one solution for this, but I would prefer a solution that allows me to store the vba code in the excel file itself, so that I only need to distribute the .xls file whenever I want to deploy this spreadsheet somewhere new.

Is it possible to lock/unlock the VBA code in a workbook through VBA from another workbook? I wish to copy modules from one workbook to another, both workbooks will have the VBA code password protected to stop prying eyes. Obviously I need to unlock the VBA in the target workbook before the copy and lock it again afterwards. Can this be done programatically? If there is no function in VBA to do this can you provide an example of how to do it using SendKeys if that is the only way to do it?
