Hyperlink - cannot download the information you requested
I am using a Excel Spreadsheet to track news releases. Within the
spreadsheet I have hyerlinks that I can click on to go to a web site and review any new press releases. Today none of my hyperlinks work and I am getting the error message "cannot download the information you requested". Can anyone give me a hint on if there is a fix for this? I have more than 400 links that are not working. |

I've had that problem before and have no idea why hyperlinks become inactive
after awhile. I'm afraid the only thing I can suggest is to select each hyperlink, press F2 and then enter. This will restore each hyperlink. You could record a macro to do it. Possibly one of the MVP's could help with looping VBA code to automate the process. HTH -- Sincerely, Michael Colvin "TheRanz" wrote: I am using a Excel Spreadsheet to track news releases.

Michael, thanks for the info. I tried the F2 and enter and it still does not
work. I believe the issue is related to my computer as the links work on another the computer. So it appears to me as I have a problem with Excel on my computer. It my be that I have to reinstall Office to resolve the issue. "Michael" wrote: I've had that problem before and have no idea why hyperlinks become inactive after awhile.
