Using A Macro To Create Hyperlinks
Jul 17, 2008
I currently have a macro that uploads information on a daily basis for hours worked on campaigns per employee. It then converts the data into a pivot table where it uses relative references to copy the total from the bottom and paste them on to another worksheet. I am now trying to use hyperlinks to link the total back to the pivot table. With daily updates though, the data is constantly being pushed down and is located in a new cell each time. How can I get a hyperlink to work for an area thats constantly changing?

I am trying to further automate the process of formatting my financial statements and am hoping someone might get me on the right track here. Currently I create 2 sheets, one called "MMM YYYY" (i.e. month year) and another called "General Ledger".
The process I am currently doing manually is creating a link between each line item on the financial statement and its GL account information on the General Ledger tab.
The description of each line item on the financial statement (the MMM YYYY tab) matches the GL account description on the General Ledger tab with the exception that the GL account description starts with the GL account number and then the description.
For example the "Utilities" line item on the financial statement needs to link to a line on the General Ledger tab that is "7071-45 Utilities".
In my mind I see the macro saying go to the next line and read what it says. Now go to the General Ledger tab and look for something that says the same thing excluding any preceeding numbers and make a hyperlink.
If it helps, I've uploaded a sample of one of the statements as I currently do them with the hyperlinks already set up. There are not any macros in this spreadsheet. If you'd like to take a look at it, you can get it here: ....

I tried to learn VBA about 4years ago, so my knowledge as died. I hope this question has not come up before, i did do a search before. I wish to create a new hyperlink based on a activecell eg. A1=SN0001 then hyperlink will be SN0001. Only thing i can remember how to do is record marco, but ofcourse copying the cell will return a hardcoded value.
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="1"
Where address is :="1" how do i paste the activecell. I have 9000 cells to hyperlink.

Can't seem to attach sample Widgets.xls. I need a macro to take the heading (note heading not sheet name) from each worksheet on a workbook (or from a range of nominated worksheets in case I don't want to index the first or last few sheets) and use it as the Description for a Index entry on a nominated sheet e.g. Sheet named 'Index'. In addition that each Description is also a hyperlink back to the sheet with the heading. In this way users can click between each entry on the index to go to the sheet and then click on the heading on the sheet to go back to the index.
Index Sheet
M21, M22 and M22-A BICYCLES1
Q21, Q22 and Q22-A BICYCLES2
R21, R22 and R22-A BICYCLES3
Taking this one step further I ideally want to save this workbook as a pdf and the hyperlinks to remain.

In column A I have a range of file path extensions (i.e., C:UsersJSmithDocumentsModelsHic Sunt DraconesTest.xlsx). What I want is a macro that will use those file path extensions to create hyperlinks in column B.
So far this is what I have:
VB:
Sub Hyperlink()
Range("a1").Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:=Range("b1").Value, SubAddress:= _
"", TextToDisplay:="Link"
End Sub
This code works for the first cell, but does not work for the rest of the cells in the range. Also. Keep in mind that the range of cells in column A is dynamic - it changes in length.

I am trying to place a hyperlink on each worksheet to an Index worksheet. This is what I come up with so far, and it does not work.
Code:
Sub CreateIndexHyperlinks()
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In Worksheets
ws.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=ws.Range("H1"), Address:="", SubAddress:="Index", TextToDisplay:="Back to Index"
Next ws
End Sub
It successfully puts the words "Back to Index" into cell H8 of every worksheet, but this cell does not link back to the Index sheet (which is called "Index"), the way I want it to.
I don't really understand the Address and SubAddress part of the argument for the Hyperlinks.Add method. I am guessing the Address part is "" because I am linking to a place in the same workbook. Is that right?
I tried changing the SubAddress to Worksheets("Index") and Worksheets("Index").Range("A1") but that just resulted in an error message.

I have a list of file names sans extension in column A. I want to search a folder I specify and if file is found create a hyperlink to said file either in a new cell or in column A.
The code I have does the search fine, but its hyperlinking is offset and I can’t get it to match the link to the file name.
Also it breaks if it can not find the file.
Here is the code...

I need to make a Workbook that has hyperlinks in the first sheet that links to a cell in a second sheet and then back again. The only way I have been able to do this is manually create each link in each sheet. I am hoping that this process can be automated as they can not be 'filled' as far as I can see. find attached an example of what I am trying to achieve.

Creating email drafts with the use of VBA in excel.
I've used some of his code to create an email draft to send a particular range within my excel spreadsheet. The trouble I'm having with it is keeping the hyperlinks within each cell in the range which will take the user to a particular website. How do I keep this formatting when the range is copied into the body of the email.
Example Cell A10 = HYPERLINK("URL","Google")
The hyperlinks are lost. How to keep these? Here is the code
Sub Mail_Selection_Range_Outlook_Body()
Dim rng As Range
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Set rng = Nothing
On Error Resume Next
Set rng = Range("EmailRange")

I have two sheets. Sheet A has a list of folders. This list is updates dynamically every time the sheet is opened. I have another sheet (sheet B) which has a list of all the files in the sub-folders, listed with the folder name at the top of the column and the files within in the column underneath with hyperlinks to them. The goal is to be able to navigate to the folders on sheet A and to click there to go to the column where all the files in that folder are linked to. What I need is a macro that will search a column and for every cell that has text in it and create in the column directly to the right a hyperlink to the appropriate cell in the top row in sheet B that has the same name as the text in the cell on sheet A that it finds. I already have the macros for listing the folders on sheet A and the macro for listing all the files in the sub folders in sheet B and they work fine. The goal is a link list which is dynamic and that recreates itself no matter what I add to the folders.
For instance, let’s say there is a folder timesheets. If I add a sub-folder called
accounting to the folder Sheet A scans then timesheets would be bumped down one spot on the list, so the macro has to look dynamically for the text in the column on sheet A.
Also the addition of the new folder would move the order of the columns on sheet B, since both lists are alphabetical. So the link generation macro would need to search row 1 of Sheet B to find the match for the text in the cell to the left of where the link would be generated and create a link to the top of that column. I’ve looked all through the site and not found something that I can even modify to do what I need.

I have a macro (Photo_Hyperlinks2) that creates a hyperlink for every file found from a specific folder in Column A of Sheet 1.
The rest of Sheet 1 is my long version of doing what I want the macro to do... place the hyperlinks at the right spot. Sheet "Checksheet" makes a hyperlink of the already made hyperlinks (from Sheet 1) ONLY if the hyperlink in Sheet 1 is found. Same goes for the hyperlinks (1), (2), (3), and (4).
I really want to get rid of having to create a Sheet 1. I'm pretty sure there's a way to tell a macro to place the hyperlinks that contain "id" and/or "est" on the right row number in sheet Checksheet, and that if that row (in Checksheet Sheet) contains a (1) -(4), put it in the right cell, while also ommiting the first part of the name (ex: from 123445E(1) to (1)) ; I can live without that part if it can't be done.
Sheet "Checklist Using C-G Columns" shows the hidden columns not seen in Sheet "Checklist". Those manually inputed numbers are there mainly to tell that if more than 1 of the cells on the row are filled out, then to create a new row below it, and to continue the hyperlinking with (5), (6)... etc.
The final product is supposed to look like Sheet "Ideal Checksheet", except that ideally links (5)... etc. should work, and columns C-G are hidden again.

I have a large spreadsheet that has thousands of hyperlinks that I would like to check periodically to make sure they are up to date. I have found dozens of examples of VBA code that will do this for me and seemingly very clear instructions on how to do it (for example this), but haven't yet been able to successfully run anything in my spreadsheet. It either doesn't do anything, or I get an error message of a bad file name.

I have a spreadsheet and within the first sheet there are lots of hyperlinks to other cells within sheet 1 (my template).
I have made a small macro which very basically makes a copy of sheet 1 (my template)
The hyperlinks in the template are explicit and as they are copied to sheet two, they still reference back to cells in sheet 1. I need the hyperlinks to be relative, so that when I make a copy of the template the hyperlinks are copied and make reference to cells in the new sheet. I cannot work out how this should be done

I am attempting to write an Excel macro that will be stored in a file called MacroFile. The purpose of the macro is to
1. Follow a hyperlink to an Excel file saved in a SharePoint type enviroment
2. Save the file to my laptop directory My Documents.
Below is the code I have written. The code is following the hyperlink and saving a file but is the focus file is incorrect.
Here is what happens:
1. Open up MacroFile and run macro
2. Hyperlinked file LinkedFile_1.xls is opened
3. File NewFile_1 is saved but contains the info from MacroFile
4. Hyperlinked file LinkedFile_2.xls is opened
5. File NewFile_2 is saved but contains the info from LinkedFile_1
6. Hyperlinked file LinkedFile_3.xls is opened
7. File NewFile_3 is saved but contains the info from LinkedFile_2
The files created are named correctly but have the wrong data in them. I need to know how to control which file is considered ActiveWorkbook.
Sub LinkAndCopy()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False

I need to create a macro that can create a dynamic copy/paste loop. So far what I have is horribly inefficient. Each row in colmn A(minus the header) has a unique number in it. For each unique number, I need to paste it based on the number of column headers in row 1(minus column A). So, if there are 20 column headers, I need to copy cell A2 and paste it 19 times in another sheet. Then, I need to move to the next number in column A and do the same thing. Here's what I have:
[Code] .........
You can see that this is not dynamic. If I add another row to my table and rerun the macro, it will not catch it. I've attached a sample file to show you the big picture of what I'm trying to do. The data that I have is in Sheet1, and I'm trying to get it into the format in Sheet3. Rows/columns will be periodically added to the table in Sheet1, so the macro needs to be dynamic to catch that. The data in Sheet3 will always remain, and the macro will add the updated data below the old data in Sheet3.

Is this possible? I know 1 and 2 are for sure, what about 3?

I have a spreadsheet that when an identity code is keyed in, it will display a make and model of a particular mobile phone, i want to put a hyperlink in the cell next to the phone name which will then open up an IE window to a website.
The thing i want ideally is if there is any way you can incorporate the websites search function into the hyperlink so when you click on it, the hyperlink will copy the phone details over to the website's search engine and take you straight to the online details of the phone?
wow this isnt making sense to me!
For e.g
The identity code shows up a Nokia 1500
The hyperlink next to it takes in the manufacturer/model details "nokia 5300" (these will obviously vary each time so takes in a cell reference should i say)
It opens up the ie window e.g "google" and automatically searches for that "nokia 5300" and comes up straight away with the search results.

Is there a way of using something like hyperlinks in VBA code to open a user form?
I presently am using hyperlinks for coworkers to open other pages that resemble a user form.
I would like to change this to actually using user forms.
I would prefer to simply click on a person's name and open the form.
