Hi,


I have code that inserts a hyperlink within a cell, then selects it,
but can I just insert the hyperlink within vba so the code just selects
the link,


my code at the moment is


Sheets("codes").Select
process = Range("b1")
Range("c1").Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection,
Address:="outlook://Public Folders/All Public Folders/BT
plc/Networks/Network Build/Processes/eTASK Enabled Processes/~" &
process & ".doc"


Range("c1").Select
Selection.Hyperlinks(1).Follow NewWindow:=False, AddHistory:=True


As you can see i insert the link into cell c1 then select it, its this
bit i want to remove, any help would be great, i have heard of the
followhyperlink method but i am unsure of the syntax to use

Hi Johnny,

You can use ThisWorkbook.FollowHyperlink to do it without creating a
hyperlink in the Workbook:

ThisWorkbook.FollowHyperlink "outlook://Public Folders/" & _
"All Public Folders/BT plc/Networks/Network Build/" & _
"Processes/eTASK Enabled Processes/~" & process & ".doc", _
, False, True
