VBA - Preserve Hyperlink When Using VLOOKUP?
May 26, 2014
I am having when trying to preserve a hyperlink when using VLOOKUP. I have two worksheets within the same workbook. Worksheet 1 contains a lot of information for internal use(many of the cells in all of the columns contain hyperlinks to web addresses), and Worksheet 2 should be a version identical to this, showing only the selected columns suitable for external use. This is to avoid using two different 'work trackers'; so, when info in Worksheet 1 is updated, Worksheet 2 should automatically be updated and reflect this.
I am currently using the following code:
Function GetHyperLink(r As Range) As String
If r.Hyperlinks.Count Then
GetHyperLink = r.Hyperlinks(1).Address
End If
[Code].....

I'm having a problem getting a hyperlink to work when adding it to a vlookup. The vlookup is looking at a page number and returning the named drawing from an Auto Desk Inventor File. I'm trying to get the returned drawing name to become a hyperlink to open the drawing. I would rather have this added to the formula so if a page number ever changes the hyperlink will change to the correct drawing also. Here is what I have so far but it is just returning an error of " cannot open the specified file". =HYPERLINK(IF(E5="","",(VLOOKUP(E5,'Inventor Import'!$A$2:$E$200,5,FALSE))))

In cell A1, I have contents extracted from a vlookup formula. eg 64021
I would like to add a hyperlink to this value, so that the user can click on it to get additional information by accessing an outside document.

I have dropdown lists across the top of my sheet that contain possible links (in text from defining multiple lists) from another sheet, and I want the cell below the dropdown list to return the active hyperlink from what the user has selected right above it. I have a another sheet (kind of a master data sheet) that has the text version of the links in column A and then the active working link (what I want) in column B and other info in the rest of the columns. I tried =hyperlink(vlookup(~~..etc)) and it returns the link but when clicked, gives me an error.

I am performing a vlookup in a worksheet and want to retrieve a hyperlink displayed on another worksheet in the same workbook.
The Vlookup finds the item I am looking for, but the hyperlink comes in as text. Do I need to perform the vlookup differently when trying to retrieve a hyperlink?

I have a Sheet named Main, Juz and another called wordforword.
Currently on Main sheet I have a vlookup that displays the results from wordforword. Instead of showing the result, I would like the user to be directed to the wordforword sheet result, with the click of a hyperlink.
I do prefer formulas over macro if possible.

I have a vlookup worksheet like described in this thread: [URL] .... This works perfect. I would like to be able to jump to the vlookup result using a hyperlink.
In the thread worksheet the formula in C2 is like
=VLOOKUP(A2,INDIRECT("'"&INDEX($G$2:$G$9,MATCH(TRUE,COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'"&$G$2:$G$9&"'!C2:C100"),A2)>0;0))&"'!C2:D100"),2,0)
In cell D2 I placed the formula (font: webdings )
=IF(C2="","",HYPERLINK("[Workbook1.xls]"&("Sheet2!"&(ADDRESS(MATCH(C2,Sheet2!$D:$D,),4))),"i"))
(Due to the Dutch Excel I use I replaced ";" to ",")
The link works because I hardcoded "Sheet2" into the formula where the result can be found. But it would be much nicer if I didn't had to put the sheetname into this formula.
Is it possible to use range G2:G8 like in the first formula to achieve this? I guess you have to use INDEX and/or INDIRECT but I barely understand the first formula ...

I had someone look up a price on a website, for a list of part numbers, and copy the link to the website page into my spreadsheet.
Now I want to transfer the price and link to my main spreadsheet.
I know how to use VLookup to get the info to my main spreadsheet but when I transfer the link using VLookup it does not come as a hyperlink that I can click on and be sent to the webpage. It is just text.
How do I convert the links to a hyperlink that I can click on and be sent to the webpage?
I have 1200 records.

I am trying to store values into a dynamic array. The size of the array will vary each time, so I need the range to be dynamic. Most importantly, I need all values to be retained in the array. Currently, a value will be stored, but once the next round of the for loop is initiated, the array changes to "<subscript out of range>" and stays that way until the it is replaced by the next value. So, there isn't an accumualtion in the array--it goes one value, to out of range, to one value, etc.

I m trying to save my excel file as a pdf. all is working great except the fact that i have a few cells that contain hyperlinks (via HYPERLINK formula). when exported, they are being converted to a simple text, loosing the link.
thus my question is this, would anyone know of a proper way to export an excel file so that ALL hyperlinks are preserved? be it with excel or any other program/converter.

I have programmed a button that allows the user to import XML data into my workbook via the following
Sub Button5_Click()
FileToOpen = Application. GetOpenFilename("XML files (*.xml), *.xml")
If FileToOpen <> False Then
ActiveWorkbook.XmlMaps("RouteDoc_Map").Import (FileToOpen)
End If
End Sub
All my XML data comes in great to the associated mapped cells (on several worksheets) but the data that is coming in as a list erases the alternating white/gray conditional formating that I've applied via FORMULA IS =MOD(ROW(),2). How would I be able to preserve the alternating white/gray conditional formating, no matter how many rows are being imported via my button ?

I have an inventory sheet with rows containing a formula. I've placed the same formula in all 65536 rows that Excel 2003 has.
I have a macro to delete unused items. It searches for an item number then deletes that row. (Actually it deletes the item number and a partial row based on an offset, but that was for an earlier version and an entire row would be okay) When a row is deleted, all the other rows move up and Excel creates a new last row (65536) The problem is that this new row has no formulas. While it's probably unlikely that I'll ever blow through 65536 rows, it seems sloppy to leave this unaccounted for.
Is there a way to either add the existing formula(s) to the last row...or insert a new row *somewhere* that is empty except for the formula of the other rows in the sheet? Here's what I have for the existing code.
Code:
'Search for item to delete based on entry to InputBox
Sub Delete_Item()
Dim FindString As String
Dim Rng As Range
Dim YesOrNoAnswerToMessageBox As String
Dim QuestionToMessageBox As String
[code].....

Within Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick, I have the following simple code extract that sets the appropriate autofilter to the correct value (and highlights a couple of cells for clarity) when a particular cell is double-clicked...
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("C10:AQ11")) Is Nothing Then
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("C10:D11")) Is Nothing Then
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=10, Criteria1:="C"
Range("C10:D11").Interior.ColorIndex = 36
End If
You'll be happy to hear that the event works as expected.
However I would like to add the following enhancement: after Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick completes the "double-clicked cell" is selected, is it possible for the "original" cell to be re-selected once the event completes?

My current headache is that I want to be able to reinstate excel formula when the delete key is hit. However there this is a slight catch. I don't just want to be able to do this for one cell but reinstate the same excel forumla in an entire cloumn (ie for multiple rows). On top of this I also need to find a way of being able to do this for multiple columns (ie column 1 has formula 1, column 2 has formula 2 etc.....)
I have found this but I am having trouble adapting it to suit my purpose. This code just reinstates the formula for 1 cell.
Worksheet module:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address "$A$1" Then
Application.OnKey "{del}"
Else
Application.OnKey "{del}", "myFormula"
End If
End Sub
Sub myFormula()
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Formula = "=RC[1]+RC[2]"
End Sub

I am making template and trying to preserve formatting when users paste into a cell. From my research, I have found that this is impossible with simple format protection, it works to prevent changing formating, but if something is pasted (with normal paste), the format will change.
I have found a few solutions, but can't get them to work correctly
Solution A: Disable normal paste and substitute Paste Special - Values
How will this work with pasting via CTRL + V and the right click menu? I need both to function.
Solution B: Allow users to paste normally, but use a macro to copy formatting from a hidden sheet
I actually found code for this, but I couldn't figure out exactly how to impliment it. The sheet that users will be pasting into is called "Batch Summary" and I was trying to pull formatting from a sheet names "Batch Summary Format", but was getting an error.

I have noticed that if I create a row and put a reference formula in one of the cells (i.e. in Cell B3 I have "=B4", to show contents of B4), then after I do Sort and Row 3 moves else where, formula in what used to be B3 no longer points to B4, but rather to B<new row + 1>.
Absolute reference doesn't seem to be an option (i.e. "=$B$4") since after sorting rows in question the cell references in my B cells do get screwed up. I guess I want to bind a certain cell to a certain other cell, and keep that bind no matter where I move the row.

Is it possible to preserve original text formatting when copying and pasting only part of a cell. Like, for example, a cell may contain ten words one of which is in red and underlined. How do you copy that one word and paste it in another cell so that it remains in red and underlined?

have come across the apparent inflexibility of a pivot chart retaining its user defined formatting whenever it is refreshed.
I understand I can save my chosen formatting as a 'user defined' custom chart, which can be applied post-refresh, but was wondering if a simple bit of code would do this automatically, saving the additional clicks!
how to deal with the attached. How could I adapt the code to call in other 'user defined' charts I may create in the future?

I'm using the code below to do a simple search & replace. The code is working fine.
My problem is after the search & replace is done, certain cells that contain numbers look weird with decimal points & plus signs similar to Format Cells - Scientific. How do I prevent these cells from looking 'weird' in my code?
I've attached a workbook with 2 sheets called Before & After. You can see the 'weird' cells in After.
Sub Macro1()
Cells.Replace What:=": ", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder _
:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False
End Sub

With ADO (ADODB.Connection), is there a way to preserve the cell formatting on the worksheet that the recordset data is copied to? Right now, if I format a Cell's font and font-size, then run the Macro to refresh the data, the formatting is gone and it's back to default formatting.

I'm writting an Excell VB application which reads data from my spreadsheet and places it into the text member of an IXMLDOMElement node in order to generate a QBXML request.
The cell I am reading from has datatype number with two decimal places as required by the xml scheme. The problem is that the Range.Value Variant data type drops the decimal point and any trailing zeros so that 1197.00 become 1197. Unfortunately, the QBXML parser requires to see the decimal as well as trailing zeros. So, 1197.90 must show up as precisely that. Changing 1197.90 into 1197.9, for example, also breaks the xml.
My Excel VBA book specifically states that a Variant data type holding numerical data will maintain the data type assigned to it.
I also tried declaring a local decimal (Dim MyDecimal As Decimal) thinking to try copying the Range.Value value to it before assigning to the QBXML field in order to force the correct data format but my VBA macro compiler does not apparently recognize "Decimal" as a valid data type event though my book clearly indicates it is one of the valid VB data types.
I am using Excel 2000. Are these problems solved in newer versions?

I will be receiving a regular .csv file with data I need to manipulate in Excel. There will be a column of data, some of which has leading zeros. These are critical text data - in Excel it's easy enough to format a cell as text - but when I OPEN a new CSV, it assumes numbers and doesn't save them. When I change the format to text, it does not re-populate that column correctly - I'm going to have to catch it on the "open in Excel" command .

I have 2 columns which contain numbers that have laeding zeros. example:
Column H has 002345 and Column I has 0678. I have tried H1&I1 but the leading zeros are stripped off. Is there a way to combine 2 cells AND preserve the leading zeros in both cells ?
