Excel for the Web Script, to open a path/folder on a Cell in Windows file explorer

[fleyd]

Hello,

I use Excel for the Web, and i would like to have a Script that would open a path/folder in Windows Explorer. The Path would be written in Cell A1 for example.

So imagine, i have in Cell A1 the path "c:\downloads" , is there some kind of Script that i would click/run and Windows file explorer would open that path/folder?

I cannot use "offline" Excel, i use Excel for the web.

Anyone can help?

Thanks

Hi, try this:

In Cell A1, type =HYPERLINK("c:\downloads")
c:\downloads will become a hyperlink and when you click it, the location will open.

Hi,

I've tried that already, but that will only work if i'm using "offline" Excel.
In Excel for the web (online) it won't work. because Excel will think it's a web link, and it's not.

That's why i think it will only work with a Script, i would say it's a simple one, but i understand nothing about it (coding)....

But thanks anyway for the help.

Anyone else has another idea?
