This will convert the selected cell range to a URL. It assumes that the selected cells are vaild URLs but will skip empty cells.
Sub Convert2URL()
For Each cell In Selection
If cell.Value <> "" Then
If Left(cell.Value, 7) = "http://" Then
URL = cell.Value
Else
URL = "http://" + cell.Value
End If
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=cell, _
Address:=URL, TextToDisplay:=cell.Value
End If
Next cell
End Sub
Now lets say you have a list of order numbers and you want to click a link in Excel and go right to your order management screen you could do:
Sub Convert2URL()
For Each cell In Selection
If cell.Value <> "" Then
If Left(cell.Value, 44) = "http://myordermanager.net/ordermanager.php?" Then
URL = cell.Value
Else
URL = "http://myordermanager.net/ordermanager.php?" + cell.Value
End If
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=cell, _
Address:=URL, TextToDisplay:=cell.Value
End If
Next cell
End Sub
Yup, its neat-o and works like a charm!

Visual Studio 2008 has projects for Office 2003 and 2007. I'd like to learn these so that I can stop using VBA and use C# to write Office apps. :)
