    Cool HyperLink Help

    Hello,
    I have made a template of a keypad in an excel spreadsheet, within the keypad are buttons. The buttons each have a hyperlink that opens another Excel spreadsheet describing the actions of the button. I have the keypad file and each "button" file in a folder. On my computer I can open the Keypad file and click any button and the hyperlink works fine. I send the folder "zipped" to a customer via email, the hyperlinks no longer work. I assume because the hyperlink location includes the local computer info.

    Is there a way to "self-contain" the folder so that if I send the folder to a customer, they can open and use it?

    HELP>>>>

    Thank you in advance.

    Aaron

    Yes. As you suggested the hyperlinks no longer work because the file path no longer exists on your customers system. However, if you move all of the linked instructional worksheets to the template workbook and reestablish the links using their new locations the hyperlinks should work just fine when you email the file. If you do not want all of these worksheets visible to the customer in the worksheet ribbon simply select them, right click, and select hide.
