I'm trying to use .xls file as index for 2000+ files
There will be a "Collection folder" that contains .xls index file and subfolder "Data" for all files I make multi-level list (with subcategories), and the last filled column is for hyperlinks to files. "Collection folder" is meant to be moved anywhere, and Index.xls must keep proper links - they must be relative. I try to insert a formula into every cell of column, and cells will need to differ only in filenames, e.g. =HYPERLINK("ThisWorkbook.Path/Data/Sun.pdf","OPEN") This way I just need to insert [filename] instead of Sun.pdf in every cell. But this doesn't work (error text: cannot open the specified file), because: 1) I use wrong syntax? 2) I use wrong function? 3) I use totally wrong approach, it's possible only through VBA or some other way... Please, advise how to achieve the task |
