Can i change multiple hyperlinks at once
I have a large database of files that are hyperlinked in a File Register
created in excel. All of these files have now been moved to a different drive, but the folder names etc are the same. Is there a quick way to change the path of the hyperlink, as to do each one individually would take weeks. |

Just go to Edit-Replace, and choose part of path which was changed (for example C:\), and write it in "Find what:" box, than put new patcial path in "Replace with" box (for example D:\). unselect "Match entire cell contents:" if it is selected, and click "Replace all". |

The following VBA function will replace the drive names as you desire
after you change the words inside the quotes to the desired ones. Sub ChangeHyperlinks() Dim h As Hyperlink Dim oldDr As String, newDr As String oldDr = "http" newDr = "ftp" For Each h In Sheets("Sheet1").Hyperlinks h.Address = newDr & Mid(h.Address, Len(oldDr) + 1, Len(h.Address)) Next h End Sub HTH Kostis Vezerides |

Huh, its seems not work , because excel don't change path but only text in the cell. Then you can use formula, for example if hyperlinks are in column A, put in B1 "=HYPERLINK("D"&RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-1))" where D is drive letter which is changed, and then copy formula to the end of file list. Sorry for the previous wrong tip. |
