    Search xls files in directory for String and return Hyperlink

    Hey all im willing to learn whatever just point me in the right direction :-)

    What im needing to do is search a specific directory full of .XLS files and return hyperlink(s) to all files that contain the Search String... Example

    Column A1 - A100 has search words
    Column B1 - B100 Returns a Hyperlink(s) to all files within directory that contain that word.

    I saw some Marcos on here that will search but how would you get the marco to output to a specific Cell?

    Any questions or anything i left out that you need let me know thanks alot!

    SATEAT,

    The following macro will create hyperlinks to the intended files
    Notes:
    -Change the FldrLoc to the path of the folder that contains the files
    • Make sure to include the ending slash \
