Convert plain text email addys in Excel 2010
2 Answers
For the life of me I cant remember how I did this.
Excel 2010, I have a list of hundreds of plain text email addresses, I cant remember how I converted them to active addresses so that when individually clicked on they open up Outlook 2010.
I can change them one by one by just adding a space at the end of each text address or by making sure autocorrect is on for typing them in one by one, or using the Hyperlink function.
But I want to select the whole column and convert them in one go, I seem to recall this was very easy when I last did it but just cant remember how I did it.
so far my google search has come up with nothing

I've just checked and this macro works and does what you want.

Thanks.
I've written all sorts of VB scripts for this particular sheet and there isnt one for converting a whole column of email addys, I'm sure I did it with a couple of clicks in the past.
I can use the linked script (need to take out some of the code thats not needed) until i figure out how I did it
