I have created a sheet in Microsoft Office excel 2007 where there are hyperlinks to different web sites like utility's etc to a total of around 244.
Nearly all these links work correctly with a single click, but a few do not and come up with a message saying "can not find server or proxy server"
like Octopus energy, admiral home insurance, B&Q online, Espares, Avro energy, I can understand about Avro as they are now gone, with the others if you copy the link into the Firefox browser or Chrome or Opera
they work just fine.
I have copied the excel sheet into an Open Office sheet and they all work correctly with just one click, although I would prefer excel as you can do more with it, in Libre office you need to press C trl+ click.
I have tried this in Microsoft office excel 97 and it is the same, is there a work round or some other way of making these work?
