checking if an url exists
 

Hi all,

is it possible in VBA to check if an url exists

Thanks

checking if an url exists
 

Good morning Aldo

I don't know of a more direct way, but this routine will trap a call to
an invalid url. If the address exists, it will be opened

On Error GoTo Last
ThisWorkbook.FollowHyperlink Address:="http://www.microsof.com",
NewWindow:=True
Exit Sub
Last:
MsgBox "Invalid address"

HTH
