    Link In Post?

    I have read the FAQ forum rules located on reading and posting messages but can't find out any information on adding links to post.

    Can anyone tell me how many post are needed to add a link to your post?

    I have a video of what I am trying to accomplish in excel and thought it would help explain.

    You need to have a certain number of posts (10 I think) to be allowed to add links
    You can always add one stripped of the http part I think

    The idea is to avoid spamming and hacking. If you feel it's dumb, that is your privilege

    The min was dropped to 5, you should now be able to post a link, although I see no reason to post links in the 1st place.
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    It's highly unlikely that your helpers will want to have to watch a video in order to help you, so I would not recommend that course of action.

    I just had the same error come up - I think I had 6 posts when it failed, but some of them are pretty old.
