Hi,

I have thousands of files in a folder and I want to extract the part of filename and create hyperlinks. My files in a folder (microarray) look like this:
US45102950_251655210078_Feb07_1.jpg
US45102950_251655210078_Feb07_1.pdf
US45102950_251655210078_Feb07_2.jpg
US45102950_251655210078_Feb07_2.jpg

My excel file sholud look like this

US45102950 251655210078 Feb07 1 link of jpg link of pdf
US45102950 251655210078 Feb07 2 link of jpg link of pdf

Actually each file has two different extenstions like jpg and pdf but the filename is same. I want to extract the information of filename after "_" in different column and with their hyperlinks of jpg and pdf files in a single row.

I am new in VBA programming.Please help me in making the code using Macro programming in excel.

Thanks in advance

Manish
