Converting text to Hyperlink cells in a column
 

Why clog up with a bunch of hyperlinks. Why not just have the typed url in a
list with a double_click event to go there.

Right click sheet tabview codeinsert this. type something like
desiredwebsite.com in a cell and just double click on the cell.

Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As
Boolean)
ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink _
Address:="http://www." & Target
End Sub

Converting text to Hyperlink cells in a column
 

I got this database in which many institutions had their URL in a column but
all of them in a text format. In order to make them aHyperlink I have to go
into each cell place the cursor then "enter" converting each cell into a
hyperlink. I was wondering if this could be accomplishe in a more automated
form since I have 5,000 entries.
