    Check hyperlinks in excel - return "Y" or "N"

    Hi,
    I have a long spreadsheet (1,000+) with links and having trouble because I'd like a formula (or some sort of macro) that returns "Y" in column B if the link is actually broken or "N" if it's not without actually having to click on 1,000+ links. I've seen similar solutions on the web but when applied to my scenario, ALL cells return as broken when I know for a fact they're not.

    I'm attaching a sample that contains partial links, here. Please advise? Your help is much appreciated.

    Best,
    ~S
