Hello guys,

First thank you for this great forum and all informations !

Well, I will explain my issue.


I need to open a Hyperlink concatenated in a cell (by example A1) who exceed 255 characters.
I tried a lot of VBA, macros and all have an issue...

The cell must be clickable and show a hyperlink name like "CLICK HERE" and need to open the very long url in the default browser.

Please I need your help.
 
This is because column H contains a formula.
The corrected code will insert the link (with the click option) into the J column


Sub hyp()




Dim rng As Range
Set rng = Application.Range("H4:H299")
Dim cel As Range
Dim i As Integer
i = 1




For Each cel In rng


ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=cel.Offset(0, 2), Address:=cel.Value, ScreenTip:="My Link", TextToDisplay:="Click Here" & i


i = i + 1




Next




End Sub

Hi,

Thanks again for your reply,

This time the 2 issues are solved.


- Well, now all hyperlinks are created in the column "J", so how to set the new hyperlinks in the column "H" as I moved the actual concatenated formula in the column "V"?

- Also the hyperlink name are created and are working but look like this : CLICK HERE1, CLICK HERE2, CLICK HERE3,CLICK HERE4...
It is possible to have the hyperlink name only as "CLICK HERE" without the line number?



Thanks again & again. ;)

Well, I solved that by myself!

Now all is working fine! Thank you again for your help and your time dear admiral100, you are the man! ;)
Maybe for fun how in the VBA script add a condition (if) to create the hyperlink name only if they are data entered (in lineX) in the column "E"?


And if you agree and you have enough time I need again your help, always for the same file...

The column "G" open a local folder to next add a picture in it...
It is possible when I click on the link to open a dialog box to search the right picture, next move this picture in the folder with the name (of the right line) in the column A&B? :rolleyes:


Thanks!!!
