Hi,

I have an excel file that contains hyperlinks to files. I get the hyperlink
address and then embed that file into the excel file. (The files are text
files.)
All the files and the excel file are on a network drive.
When I run the macro from my PC everything works OK.
When I try it from a different PC I get the 1004 error on the command that
embeds the files:
ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(Filename:= _
HyperlinkAddress, _
Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:=True, IconFileName:="packager.exe",
_
IconIndex:=0, IconLabel:="").Select

Any reason why it should behave in a different way when you activate the
same macro in the same file from a different PC?

Thanks,
Rakefet

Depends how you are getting the file name.
If these are hard coded, maybe the drive mapping is different on the other
PC ?
