Add Dynamic Hyperlink To Separate Worksheet In Same Workbook
Oct 24, 2013
I have read a number of posts and other sites and can create the hyperlink in the desired cell but get an error message to the effect, "Cannot open the workbook."
The current macro follows. I believe its description is made in the comment statements below the date-author comment.
Sub DecomposeCTQ()
'Decompose CTQ Macro
'14Oct13 Charles T. Carroll'
'This macro copies the template to a new worksheet and takes data from the'
' active cell CTQ and makes it the parent CTQ on the new worksheet. Then'
' it renames the new worksheet with the active cell CTQ ID.'
If ActiveCell.Column 2 Then
MsgBox "You must be in the CTQ ID Column to run this program"

I've been trying to create a hyperlink to another worksheet in the same workbook using cell("filename") to extract the filepath because the filename could change or the file could be moved. I use
=LEFT(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("[",CELL("filename",A1),1)-1)&MID(CELL("filename"),SEARCH("[",CELL("filename"))+1, SEARCH("]",CELL("filename"))-SEARCH("[",CELL("filename"))-1)
to extract the file path, and then try to throw it into the hyperlink formula like:
=HYPERLINK("[&G1&]'Sheet2'!A2","Go to link")
where G1 is the cell where the filepath is stored.
I'm not sure if my syntax or something is wrong but it's not working out.
I am also looking to use vlookup or somethign in the hyperlink formula to match the cells in column A of sheet1 to column B of sheet2 so I can hyperlink it to the same number on sheet2. Right now in the example below it is all linked to go to A2 on sheet2, and dragging the formula down doesnt change it to A3,A4 etc.

I'm having a problem with the HYPERLINK function. I am trying to make jumps from an index sheet to the large worksheet with all the actual info in it. The name of the file is SKU and the large info sheet is also called SKU. First I took the SKU sheet and numbered the rows (="A"&CELL("row",A1)), then in the index worksheet I created a VLOOKUP that finds the corresponding chapter title and returns that value.
Worksheet 1
A B C
1
2 100 =VLOOKUP(A2,SKU!$A$1:$B$3,2,FALSE) ="[SKU]SKU!"&VLOOKUP(A2,SKU!$A$1:$B$3,2,FALSE)
3 150 =VLOOKUP(A3,SKU!$A$1:$B$3,2,FALSE) ="[SKU]SKU!"&VLOOKUP(A3,SKU!$A$1:$B$3,2,FALSE)
I used the HYPERLINK formula in column D: "=HYPERLINK(C2,A2)" and it returns something that looks like the right thing but the link won't open.

Im working with a huge amount of data in BOOK1.xls and once or twice a week I received an update of the list.
1. I need to compare and find out from the new updated worksheet if there is a new revision, and if there are new documents added to the list. I have tried Vlookup..but it didnt work for me. Ex. Doc1 has revision 1, 2 in my BOOK1 that I am working on. Note that there is a repetition of the DocName, Doc Number except for the revision.

I have 10 very large workbooks that are all setup in the same format. In column Z is a numerical value from 1 to 83. I have been trying to filter the sheet and then copy one at a time from 1 to 83 but that takes a LONG time especially when there is 10 workbooks to do.
Is there anyway I can run a function or macro or something that would just automatically look down the column Z and put each row into a it's own workbooks?
I have attached a sample of what the workbooks look like right now.

Cell C3 is validated to show a list of the worksheets in my workbook.
Is it possible to set up a hyperlink in cell B2 with the text 'Go To' which will pick up the selected sheet name from C3 to enable the user to go directly to that sheet?

I am trying to activate a Dynamic Hyperlink in IE. Each time a user starts a new session, a single parameter in the URL changes. Is there a way to search the page, identify the preferred link, and activate it without knowing the full hyperlink address?
The hyperlink is as follows: [url]
The parameter after "unitchange" is what changes from session to session.

I took a look around and noticed I can use the HYPERLINK command to link to a URL plus the contents of a different cell, such as something like =HYPERLINK(URL).
My question is, can I do a dynamic hyperlink that is smart enough to append whatever data is in the same cell to be the final part of the URL? Or do I HAVE to have another column where the hyperlink command is pointing to the first column as the variable?
For example I have a single column with either nothing in it or a 4 digit number. The 4 digit number is also the end of the URL I want it to link to. For example if the column says 1234, I would want it to go to [URL] .........

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?

I am building a dashboard and would like to be able to have shapes I have created be clickable with a dynamic link to a document on our network. Something along the hyperlink() function.
In a cell, the function looks like this: =HYPERLINK(Worksheet!I34,Worksheet!F34).
The data in I34 changes, depending on the input from a drop down using a vlookup command. Is it possible to create a macro and assign it to a shape to make the shape a clickable link?

I am hitting a brick wall on this one. I am trying to assign hyperlinks to objects based on the cell value. Here is my code that colors the objects that have the same names as in Column AO. I am trying to also add a hyperlink to those same objects with the cell value in the list. The problem is while a hyperlink is added, I can not get the value of the cell to show up in the hyperlink address.
Sub TurnColOn()
Dim i As Integer
On Error Resume Next
LastRowa = Range("AO65536").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 2 To LastRowa
Labl1 = Range("AO" & i).Value
ActiveSheet.Shapes(Labl1).Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection.ShapeRange.Item(1), Address:=Labl1
Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 10
Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Visible = msoTrue
Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Solid
Next i
End Sub

I have created an employee schedule with 26 pay periods. Each pay period has its' own worksheet for scheduling employees.
To navigate to the worksheets I created a home page on one of the worksheets and would like to create an AutoShape for navigating with a hyperlink based on the pay period which is selected in cell B3. When the autoshape is clicked the user would go to the correct pay period worksheet.
For example Home Page:
Cell B3 contains drop down list of the 26 pay periods which the user selects the proper pay period (ie. 8Jun14-21Jun14)
Cell E3 is a cell reference on the sheet A1
Cell B6 contains hyperlink formula =HYPERLINK("#"&"'" & B3 & "'!" & E3)
Autoshape has formula =B6
When I click on the autoshape the hyperlink does not work.

I have a range of numbers that are not completely sequential and I'd like to separate them out into their individual numbers. In cell A1 I have displaying "1-30" and then in cell A2 I have "50-72" and A3 "100-105", et cetera. I 'd like to have cell B1 through B30 display 1 through 30 (1 in B1, 2 in B2, 3 in B3...) respectively, and then cell B31 through B53 would have 50 through 72.
I need to create a formula that can dynamically pick up the last number after the "-" so that it can work for any number range of any length. I've tried using left and right but that doesn't help when moving from the 10's digits to 100's digits.

I need to separate row data from one workbook into separate workbooks based on cell data. Currently I filter the data, copy and paste it to a new workbook and save it. It's a tedious process and was hoping to find a way to automate it. I have attached a sample file. In this instance, I would like a separate workbook for the filtered data in Column 1 and then all the row data gets copied to new workbook. So all of Pennsylvania data would get copied to new workbook, then all of the Michigan data gets copied to a new workbook. I have also attached an example of the end result that I need.

I have set up a workbook (wb2) that has external references to another workbook (wb1). All is good and works fine when you open the 2 files from windows explorer. I have then put a hyperlink to wb2 from wb1. When you click on this link the file opens but throws up errors saying some of the named ranges cannot be found?

I m not able to use the standard Excel Paste Special function when I copied a range of cells in another Excel workbook opened in a separate instance of Excel. Instead, Paste Special thinks that I have copied some non-Excel objects and gave me the Paste As options. This is not the case if I open both workbook within the same instance of Excel. Could you share with us if there is a trick to trigger the normal Paste Special options in such situations (without having to invoke Macro procedures)?

I need to reference the projected and actual expenses from the total on worksheet 'expenses' So i did so, however, if I change the drop down on the expenses worksheet to only display housing data, then the projected and actual expenses on my budget worksheet changes as well to the new data portrayed on the expenses worksheet.
I need to reference the cell, without it changing when I change the category display, but I need the cell to change accordingly if I enter new data in the overall tablet on the expenses worksheet.
Or do I need to create a seperate worksheet that has the data in and reference my cells on my budget worksheet to that new worksheet?

i have a workbook blank template for my colleagues to fill in, they fill in this blank template and save it under the serial number of the item they are creating. However a lot of errors exist when they input the serial number inside the workbook where the serial number is a duplicate of a former serial number.
Anyhow i was wondering is there any way when they input the serial number into the worksheet that i could get it to save in a separate workbook and then have conditional formatting to check those serial numbers in the workbook to see if they match?

I have been tasked with creating a macro which creates a new workbook wherein each sheet contains the information for one site from the active sheet. The active sheet already has the values sorted by the site such that all information needing to be copied from the active sheet into the new workbook is together.
I.E.
ATL
ATL
ATL
ATL
CEN
CEN
JCK
JCK
etc.
There are 8 different sites on the active sheet: ATL, CEN, DAL, HAR, JAS, JCK, VIS, NOV
The macro needs to find the range for all of the data of each site and copy/paste that data into a new workbook such that ATL would have its own sheet, CEN would have its own sheet, and so on. The data ranges from A:R.
So, for example, the macro would find that the last row with ATL in the "B" column is 6095 and would then copy A2:R6095 and insert that data into the new workbook under Sheet 1.
I had some code that I had adapted to select the range for each of them, but the code loops through the entire sheet (which is 44,307 rows long) for each site making it a quite clunky and very slow step in an even longer macro. Since the data is already sorted, I know there must be a way to have the macro stop searching when it reaches data not equal to the data the row before, however, my experience with VBA is limited, and I have been unable to find a solution. Also, the data does not have to be conserved after being sent to the new workbook, if that would speed up the macro.

What I want is if I click the E3=1, E4=2, E5=3, E6=4, E7=5..., in WS1=Main if will jump to specific cell in WS2=Reference e.g. F5=1, F6=2, F7=3, F8=4, F9=5...,

I 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.

I have a question regarding hyperlinks...now what i wish to do is force a hyperlink in what i thoguht would be esily dne in a worksheet change event...hw wrong was i.
Lets say i type 'test' in A1 and press enter...now because i ave pressed enter A1 is no longer the active cell so the code in the sheet change event inserts the code into A2 but because A is blank the 'Text to display' becomes the hyperlinks address.
I wrote a simple with/ end with thinking it would work but it doesnt because of the issue above (Hope i am making sense here)
I got round it by copying the activecell (which would be the cell underneath) and pasting it back to the original target cell, which because it contains text does what i wantbut i am hoping for a much cleaner solution.....
My target column is '1' and only one i will just need to exit the sub anywhere else on the sheet

I would like to, using VBA, assign a hyperlink to an excel cell that links to another worksheet within the same workbook. I've tried the forums, and combined with a previous post and MS Excel Help File, I've come up with the following attempt:
With Worksheets("Test Destination")
.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=.Cells(counter + 4, 5), Address:=strHyper2, _
TextToDisplay:=(#1/1/2007# + counter)
End With
strHyper2 is previously defined: strHyper2 = "[WeatherTester.xls]1!A1"
My spreadsheet file is "WeatherTester.xls", my worksheet is "1", and "A1" is the desired link location for the cursor. Counter is an integer. I get the error "Invalid procedure call or argument". I also tried to enter a hyperlink directly through the formula property, but Excel didn't like the single quotations I had to use within the HYPERLINK function. The hyperlink formula works in the following form: =HYPERLINK("[WeatherTester.xls]1!A1","1 Jan")

I have an overview worksheet that features a list of dates; I want to hyperlink the dates to the another worksheet within the workbook that represents the month. I want to do this without changing the dates in the overview sheet. For example, I have 2014-05-23, 2014-05-24,2014-05-25 in my overview sheet and I have a worksheet titled May 2014. When I try to hyperlink the dates to the May worksheet it turns the dates to #### in the overview sheet. How can I stop that from happening?
