    Find broken hyperlinks and highlight them

    Hi,

    I need a macro that will search an entire workbook and highlight hyperlinks that direct you to an external website (SkyDrive) that don't work.

    Thanks in advance!!

    Hi Watwesev,

    Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

    I've attached a workbook and inserted examples of where links will be/could be placed - if you need an example with actual hyperlinks pm me and I will send it to you.

    try this option:

    To my understanding broken link is:
    - text string that is not a link
    - a valid link but leads to "Not found" page
