Can Excel interpret the URLs in my CSV as hyperlinks?
With embedding the hyperlink function you need to watch the quotes. Below is an example of a CSV file created that lists an error and a link to view the documentation on the method that failed. (Bit esoteric but that's what I am working on)
"Details","Failing Method (click to view)"
"Method failed","=HYPERLINK(""http://some_url_with_documentation"",""Method_name"")"
You can actually do this and have Excel show a clickable link. Use this format in the CSV file:
=HYPERLINK("URL")
So the CSV would look like:
1,23.4,=HYPERLINK("http://www.google.com")
However, I'm trying to get some links with commas in them to work properly and it doesn't look like there's a way to escape them and still have Excel make the link clickable.
Does anyone know how?
