Default Hyperlink in Excel spreadsheet

Hello, I have a about 1000 cells in a worksheet that are hyperlinked. The
hyperlink path changed on all to a file path that is not recognized. How do
I change the hyperlink to the correct file path without going into to each
cell and editing the path? The path is the same for all, just a different
file name.

Hi,
Click the Microsoft Office Button , click Prepare, and then click Properties.
In the Document Information Panel, click Document Properties, and then click
Advanced Properties.
Click the Summary tab.
In the Hyperlink base box, type the path that you want to use.

Thanks, I tried that, but it doesn't change the hyperlink path.

Changing this hyperlink base may stop the links from being changed again,
though.

I got the macro to work but it duplicates the new path in the hyperlink. Any
ideas?

Share the before version of the hyperlink.
Share the code you used.
Share the after version of the hyperlink.
