I also have another issue relating to hyperlinking. It seems that regardless of the format of the cell that I create a hyperlink in (say, Gill Sans MT 8pt) the hyperlink appears as Arial 10pt. Is it possible to make the hyperlink respond to the cell format or do I have to retrospectively change it every time?

Hi There.
I have a document register located on a file server with 3 columns each of which contain hyperlinks to documents contained in three separate subfolders within a job folder.
As I enter the file names into the columns on my register and then hyperlink them, I have to navigate two steps up the folder tree and then two steps back down in order to access the folder with the document I am hyperlinking to. This is very tedious and due to the folders being housed on a remote server accessed via VPN it’s very slooooooooow!
Is it possible to make the Hyperlink Dialogue box open in the correct folder without having to do the two step up and down dance described above?
Thanks.

Hi.

I need to link up about 800 employees with their picture. The picturefile is in the format “employee number”_First Name”_”Lst Name”.jpg
e.g. 12345_Tom_Thomson.jpg.

I have the unique employee number in a cell. Is there any way to make a hyperlink that only looks at the first five digits or chars in the filename? Eg. hyperlink(./12345.jpg; “Link”)?

Hi,

Using the hyperlink functionality, is it possible to embed in the hyperlink text from a cell in excel?

For example:
I have the following in the hyperlink address:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juillan
Is it possible to read ‘Juillan’ from cell F6 when A6 contains ‘Juillan’ ?

Thanks

Hyperlink Formula in Excel
I want to apply this in a sheet where there are many records. So, is there any way we can identify the rows, where the hyperlink is invalid (which means there is no such file to open)? Expecting a solution for this.
