Excel “Make Links Live” Updated
Last year we developed a button for Excel that would let you simply select a column, press the button, and instantly all of the http:// urls became “live” so you could click on them.
It was a huge time saver for spotchecking links, and we had a request to improve upon it by including https:// and a second request to add email addresses too, so we did.
Now, you can make just about any hyperlink live in an Excel spread sheet with the press of a button! –
- http://
- https://
- email@address.com (opens an email)
- mailto:
- ftp://
- news:
- file://
- and even www. (adds http://)
Here’s a quick video below, and members can download it here.
If you already have it installed, then all you need to do is get the new file, and copy / paste it to overwrite the other one.
