I have an excell file with 2500 urls in it that were saved as plain text...i
need to hyperlink all of them but i don't want to do it 2500 times....does
anyone know a way to mass hyperlink several lines

You can do this with the urls in column B

Sub test()
For Each myCell In Columns("B").Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstant s)
If myCell.Value Like "http://www.*" Then
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=myCell, _
Address:=myCell.Value, TextToDisplay:=myCell.Value
End If
Next
End Sub

Instead, you might prefer to use a worksheet double_click event to goto the
url clicked on?

From vba Help indes for hyperlink and then selecting followhyperlink
ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink Address:="http://example.microsoft.com", _
NewWindow:=Trueso right click sheet tabview codeinsert thisSAVEtype
in a url myurl.comdoubleclick on itPrivate Sub
Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
ActiveWorkbook.followhyperlink Address:="http:\\" & Target, NewWindow:=True
End Sub
