    Hyperlinks disappeared after deleting uneeded columns

    After copying a large worksheet to a new workbook and deleting unneeded columns all hyper links disappeared. Is there anyway to restore them without individually linking each cell in the workbook to the external pdf files that were linked in the original worksheet?

    You have probably deleted cells that were used in the HL. Now way to get those back if the file has already been saved. Can you go back to the original and try again?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)

    Weirdly the hyperlink just all started working. I don't what happened. Are hyperlinked external files keyed to an absolute cell reference or to a relative cell reference. Since mine reestablished themselves after I deleted a bunch of columns I'd guess the answer is relative cell references?
