Hello fellow Excel users,

I am using Excel 2010 in Windows 7.

I have a spreadsheet called "Incoming Shipments" that I maintain and distribute to several people within my company. As you can guess, it tracks all of our in-transit shipments and gives everyone an idea of when they will arrive. Each row represents a shipment and has various dates and other pieces of information.

I would like to add a column called "Packing List" that links to the packing list PDF document that correlates to each shipment.

This works on my own computer because I have all of the packing list PDF documents stored there, but when I email it to others, the links won't work. Is there any way to fix this?

Thanks so much!

Ian

Which Excel functions can ignore hidden rows?
The SUBTOTAL and AGGREGATE functions ignore hidden rows. AGGREGATE can also exclude error cells and more.
You would have to store the PDFs on an internet server so the "address" to the files is the same for everyone.
