Please upload the sample file.
Were the hyperlinks created by macro or manually?
Did you change the location of the files?

I used the create hyperlink option when you right click on the cell.
They were moved but i deleted that hyperlink and added a new one with the new location. still doesnt work.
If you upload a sample file, it will help to troubleshoot.
I will try. let me know if that works.Originally Posted by arlu1201

So where should the hyperlinks be placed? Should i just create dummy files like Book1.xlsx, Book2.xlsx and hyperlink them to your file?
Every item in the "Sample#" column will have a hyperlink with each hyperlink going to a different workbook.
I created a hyperlink myself and it worked. Could you try again and ensure that you do not change the location of the file?
I tried again and it still says, "can not open the specified file"
I figured it out. The folder that the workbooks were in had a "#" in the name. When I removed that everything works fine.
