    hyperlinks in excel

    I have a list of 2200 drawings in excel and want to create links to them. The files all reside in the same drive and all use the same format.

    record a macro to create a link to one of the files,

    search in this or the vb6 forums for examples of looping through directories, i as well as others have posted code to do this,
    http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...sive+directory

    then combine the recorded code into the file loop

    if your files are all in one level of folders you will not need to use recursive file looping, but if they can be in sub sub folders, then you will need recursive searching

    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed
