Create Hyperlink in Excel

Hi all,
I looked through the excel examples that ship with labview. I found out how to get data into excel cells and read from them. But I still look out how to create a hyperlink that is connected to a text in an excel cell. I think this could be done without using the report generation toolkit, that I don't have.
Best Regards,
Toni

Using Apache POI 3.2 to create hyperlinks in Excel

Hello,
I am new to Java.
I have written a program that accesses Excel with the Apache POI version 3.2.
All seems to work until I tried to insert a Hyperlink to a file on the local drive.
I followed the quick start guide from Apache POI.
It provides the following code but Java does not appear to find the "createHelper".
//link to a file in the current directory
cell = sheet.createRow(1).createCell((short)0);
cell.setCellValue("File Link");
link = createHelper.createHyperlink(Hyperlink.LINK_FILE);
link.setAddress("link1.xls");
cell.setHyperlink(link);
cell.setCellStyle(hlink_style);
Any ideas on how to insert a Hyperlink into Excel would be appreciated.
Thanks
Chris

How do I create working hyperlinks in Excel files?

Hi there, I'm new to this so please don't over estimate my knowledge! I am trying to create an online file repository for a client. It is basically a website holding excel files that link to each other. The hyperlinks work on the website version but don't work on the blackberry bold test handset I'm working with. I was creating them in excel as web page hyperlinks. Can anyone please shed some light on why these don't work? Thanks Ali

Pages '09 ≠ Pages 5.01.
You have the bugs and reduced features of Pages 5, the version you recently installed.
Pages '09 should be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Use that instead.

Possible to create a hyperlink in excel to a bookmark in a PDF?

My boss would like to be able to click on a hyperlink in excel, and it would take him directly to a bookmarked item in a PDF. After searching I've come up empty handed. Is this even possible? He swears he's seen it done before, but then again, he's been wrong in the past - so who knows.
Any help is appreciated!

No, it's not possible.

Hyperlinks from Excel 2010 to external programm

Hello!
I have Microsoft Office 2010.
I am interested in addition hyperlinks to pivot table in Excel, which can mouve to the external web application (Global Specification System - the system of documentation management).
1. How can I add hyperlinks to pivot table?
2. When I add hyperlink to ordinary Excel table (to the certain document), the hyperlink mouves me not to the certain document, but to the start page.
Please let me know if you have any ideas how to realize this.

We cannot add hyperlinks to pivot Table directly, but we can use some VBA code to create fake hyperlinks in a pivot table,refer to the link below to learn how to get it work:
http://www.pivot-table.com/2013/11/06/create-fake-hyperlinks-in-excel-pivot-table/
On your second question, if your hyperlink works fine in browser, please see :

9.3.4 Update Broke HyperLinks to Excel Spread Sheets located on Same Domain.

I have created company procedural documents in PDF using Adobe Pro 9.3.3.
These procedures contain hyperlinks to Excel spreadsheets that are located on an Internal Domain File Server. When I click on the Hyperlink using Adobe Reader 9.3.3, Excel launches and opens the spreadsheet . Adobe Reader or Adobe Pro 9.3.4 won’t open the link. Adobe 9.3.4 pops up a Window saying the spread sheet cannot be found, make sure you type the name correctly so on and so on. I Click OK on the first pop up, a second Adobe Pop-up window opens saying "Could Not Open the file" followed by the correct path to the spread sheet. I just tested it on a computer running Adobe Reader 9.3.3 and the hyperlinks worked fine. I then Upgraded Adobe Reader to 9.3.4, absolutely no other changes, and the hyperlinks no longer work..Same pop up..Cannot find .xls"..."Could not open .xls"..
Hyperlink syntax being used is \\servername\sharename\folder\spreadsheet.xls . So what setting do I need to chase down in 9.3.4 to correct this? What changed in 9.3.4 from 9.3.3?

We are experiencing a similar problem with Reader 9.3.4
We have training products produced in Acrobat 6, as PDFs which have hyperlinks to run Flash movies (SWFs). The products are installed from CD onto users' hard drives.
The products have worked on hundreds of PCs and Macs, but as each customer updates to Reader 9.3.4 they report failure to open the SWFs.
The SWFs are organised in a hierarchy of folders depending on exact topic. All the movies are inside a "data" folder, then main topic folders, down to sub-topic folders.
I have found that the PDF hyperlinks will open a copy of the relevant SWF if it is placed in the same folder as the calling PDF, but not when it is in its rightful position down the path.
The initial error message shown when files are in their correct folders says e.g. "Cannot find anchoring_one.swf" suggesting that only the filename is called and not the path. However the second message, displayed when the first is acknowledged, says e.g. "Cannot open data/anchoring/anchoring_one.swf" So the hyperlink IS outputting the full path, but somehow it it is being truncated to file name only.
Seems that the call is produced from the hyperlink correctly, and registers with the system as full path. Then the call is passed forward to a function which should actually open the file and here loses its path, so file-open fails and returns a "Cannot Find" message. The return code from this function is passed back as a failure, to the prior function which still knows the path. This prior function then issues the "Cannot Open" message, including the full path.
Is is totally impractical for us to rewrite and re-issue the programs in any other format, or stop thousands of independent customers from upgrading to Reader 9.3.4
I hope Adobe can fix this issue VERY quickly.

Hyperlinks in excel don't allow user to save file in adobe reader

I created a fillable form for users who have adobe reader. Form works. Users can fill the form in and save it (with same name). When users try to access this same form thru a hyperlink in excel, they are not allowed to save the filled in form using the same name. Can this be corrected?

Hello,
Adobe Acrobat is used to design and edit forms, while Adobe Reader is only for reading.
Once you reader extend any form, actually you enable some usage rights on that particular form and once you open that form in Reader, you will be able to perform the action that you have enabled.
So the first thing is the end user must have Reader not Acrobat, otherwise no use of reader extending the form.
Now to your question..
If you design form in LiveCycle designer, you can use validate element to prevent save, put this in XML source like below.
<config>
   <present>
      <validate>preSave</validate>
   </present>
</config>
If you are designing form in Acrobat itself, you can use script to disable menu items.
For details please look in this blog.

Garbled text when creating hyperlinks

I have a user who is creating hyperlinks in the Table of Contents of a 500 page PDF to pages within the PDF. After 10-15 hyperlinks, she gets strange characters and garbled text on some of the pages. If she saves and closes the document and reopens, she can go back to working but it will reoccur soon again. She is using Acrobat 9 Professional on Windows 7 Enterprise. She has the latest updates for Acrobat. Any thoughts?
thanks

Most of the document was converted from Microsoft Excel 2007 documents. The Table of Contents was converted from Microsoft Word 2007 document.

CS4 creating hyperlinks in TOC from paragraph style sheet

Hi all
Does anyone know if it's possible for a script to find all instances of text in a named paragraph style and then link each instance to the corresponding entry in a modified TOC?
The workflow is for a 800-item catalogue created in CS4. At the moment, the title for each entry is set in a dedicated paragraph style; once all entries are signed off, I generate a TOC listing all the items. All very straightforward.
My client now wants an interactive PDF so that clicking on any item in the TOC will take him automatically to the relevant page in the catalogue. I want to avoid having to generate those hyperlinks manually… I know very little about scripting but I do know this is exactly the sort of thing that should be possible:
– find first instance of text in Para Style 1
– create hyperlink named with that text
– link this to corresponding text in Para Style 2
– repeat for all instances of text in Para Style 1.
But I also know that the hyperlink/cross-reference function can be a little counter-intuitive and I don't know whether I'm asking for the moon on a stick.
Thanks!

There's an excellent script* called LiveTOC which does exactly what you're asking for. It allows you to turn all your TOC entries into hyperlinks for PDF export.

I am creating an application using BSP wherein i have to export the data to the Excel sheet through the BSP application. I am able to export the data from tables to the excel but there are some hyperlink entries in the database tables which i need to fetch and display in the excel. The problem is excel is not displaying those web addresses like "www.sap.com" as hyperlink.I tried to concatenate it with ' http:// ' , but its not converting the values into hyperlinks. Can anybody please suggest how to display the hyperlink values from database table into the excel sheet?
Thanks in Advance,
Mahima.

Hi Anita,
Please have a look at the following piece of code that i am using for concatenating hyperlink values with
"=HYPERLINK....". But, still its not converting the values into hyperlink.
the code is as below:
data: s1 type c length 60 value '=HYPERLINK("http:// ',
          s2 type c length 20 value '","sap")'.
      SELECT SINGLE VALUE INTO WA_VALUE FROM ZGKB_ASSCI WHERE PAFID =
      WA_FEATURE-PAFID AND COUNTRY_INDIC = WA_COUNTRY-LAND1.
      Append wa_value to itab_pdf.
***********For displaying the hyperlinks in excel.
        if wa_value CP ' www.. '
            concatenate s1 wa_value s2 into wa_value.
        endif.
          LOOP AT ITAB_COUNTRY INTO WA_COUNTRY.
           SELECT SINGLE VALUE INTO WA_VALUE FROM ZGKB_ASSCI WHERE PAFID =
           WA_FEATURE-PAFID AND COUNTRY_INDIC = WA_COUNTRY-LAND1.
           CONCATENATE L_STRING   wa_value
           CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB INTO L_STRING SEPARATED BY
           CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.
          endloop.
I think it's almost similar to what your code is doing.But it is not converting the values to hyperlink.
Could you please help me with this.
Thanks and Regards,
Mahima.

Report navigation after creating hyperlink

Hi,
I am using Webi rich clinet XI R3.1. I have one main report with six dashboards and associated detailed reports. I created hyperlink for each of the dashboard and linked to detailed report in infoview.
If i need to see main report i've to close this detailed report.Now how can i make the detailed report open in same window and navigate forward and backward to the main report instead of closing.
I would appreciate if some one could provide any work around available if possible atleast.

Hi
Create two links one Back and one Next in each report.
Drag two free standing cells in the report and use opendocument syntax to create the links.
The thread Re: Hyperlink Back functionality may give an idea.

How to create a New Excel File programmatically

Hi !
I am documenting acquired data continuously in an excel file, what I need to do is to create a new excel file automatically when the size of the previous file exceeds a certain limit lets say 1MB.
I have tried using the simple 'Create/Open File' function and the 'Write to Spreadsheet File' function to create the new excel file. I does create a file but when I open the file it says the format of the file is not what you have opened it with.
Also when the new file is created, three new worksheet are to be added programmatically with pre-defined worksheet name and also Column headers for each of the worksheet are to be added.
I am also using 'Labview Report Generation Toolkit for Office'.
Regards,
Reeves
Solved!
Go to Solution.

@ Aldo A
Thanks for the reference to tutorial, I didn't know about them. They are useful in general but unfortunately they don't answer the problem of creating an altogether new excel file programmatically.
@ ben64
The template thing simplifies the issue of formatting the new file. But I am still working on the new excel file creation challenge.
Let me put my problem in a different way.
Certain data is being acquired continually and is being written to a certain excel file, when the size of the file exceeds lets say 1MB the program should start saving the data in a NEW FILE instead of the previous file.
I have attached the VI to explain what I am trying to achieve here.

How can I create a new excel workbook only with labview

Hi everyone...
I'm trying to create a new excel workbook only with labview but I can't find the file in the hard disk.
Someone knows?

You are not using the correct mechanism. Pull up the Example Finder in LabVIEW, click on the "Search" tab, and enter "Excel". Look for an example called "Write Table to XL". Use this as a starting point for creating new workbooks and adding data to it.
Note: on disk the example is at <LabVIEW install directory>\examples\comm\ExcelExamples.llb.

Opening Hyperlinks inside Excel WebAccess webpart in the Same Window

I was trying to access Excel Web parts hyperlink like below, but this solution is not working for me.
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".ewr-sheetcontainer a").each(function(){
$(this).attr("onclick","openLink(this)");
function openLink(Atagproperties)
Atagproperties.target = "_self";
Problem is .ewr-sheetcontainer has role="Presentation" atttribute,
which says it will delete the contents from accessible tree.
Is this the reason it is not working for me? or Am I missing anything?
Appreciate your help on this. Thanks, Maddy

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to set the hyperlink in Excel Access Web Part opening in the same window.
As the excel access web part is dynamic loading after the page load, so when the page has loaded, the excel web part element has not been loaded completely.
I suggest you can use setInterval method to run function circularly until the excel access web part has loaded in the page.
Here is a code snippet for your reference:
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var $a;
var interval;
$(document).ready(function(){
interval = setInterval(ready, 1000);
function ready()
$a = $('div.cv-nwl a');
if($a.html()!=null)
$a.attr('target','_self');
clearInterval(interval);
</script>
Thanks
