I have a userform & the values a sent to the worksheet.
In column B will be the customers name.
The code would hyperlink this customers name if a photo was present in the advised folder & if not it would show the user a message advising no photo is present etc.

I have just seen that this no longer works.
I have a separate code on worksheet where i select the customer & add the hyperlink that way so that shows the path etc is correct.

Not sure how much of the code you need but this i believe is after the values are sent to worksheet, not sure if that shows an issue there for you ?

VBA Code:
        Const FILE_PATH As String = "C:\Users\Ian\Desktop\REMOTES ETC\DR\EBAY CUSTOMERS PHOTOS\"
        If ActiveCell.Column = Columns("B").Column Then
 
        If Len(Dir(FILE_PATH & ActiveCell.Value & ".jpg")) Then
          ActiveCell.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=ActiveCell, Address:=FILE_PATH & ActiveCell.Value & ".jpg"
        MsgBox "CUSTOMER PHOTO HYPERLINK WAS SUCCESSFUL.", vbInformation, "SUCCESSFUL HYPERLINK MESSAGE"

        End If
        Else
            MsgBox "PLEASE SELECT A CUSTOMER FIRST TO HYPERLINK THE PHOTO.", vbCritical, "HYPERLINK ERROR MESSAGE"
        Exit Sub
        End If
        
        If Dir(FILE_PATH & ActiveCell.Value & ".jpg") = "" Then
        
        If MsgBox("THERE IS NO PHOTO TO HYPERLINK FOR THIS CUSTOMER" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & _
            "WOULD YOU LIKE TO OPEN THE PHOTO FOLDER ?", vbYesNo + vbInformation, "HYPERLINK MISSING PHOTO MESSAGE.") = vbYes Then
        
            CreateObject("Shell.Application").Open ("C:\Users\Ian\Desktop\REMOTES ETC\DR\EBAY CUSTOMERS PHOTOS\")
            answer = MsgBox("CONTINUE TO NOW HYPERLINK THE CUSTOMER WITH PHOTO ?", vbYesNo, "HYPERLINK PHOTO MESSAGE")
        If answer = vbNo Then
        Exit Sub
        Else
                                            
        GoTo err
        End If
        End If
        End If
        End If
        
        End Sub

I have an old file where ive just tried it & it works.
There is redundant code in it that i no longer use so not sure how to go about going through it to locate the issue
 

Excel Facts

Back into an answer in Excel
Use Data, What-If Analysis, Goal Seek to find the correct input cell value to reach a desired result
This is the fill code on the command button.

On the code shown in Red i added a Msgbox but when i read the code BOTH were ignored.
So this is why when OB19 is selected YES nothing happens.

Does that mean the issie lies above ?

VBA Code:
Private Sub PostageSheetTransferButton_Click()

Cancel = 0
If TextBox2.Text = "" Then
    Cancel = 1
    MsgBox "CUSTOMER`S NAME NOT ENTERED", vbCritical, "POSTAGE TRANSFER SHEET"
    TextBox2.SetFocus
    
ElseIf TextBox3.Text = "" Then
    Cancel = 1
    MsgBox "ITEM DESCRIPTION NOT ENTERED", vbCritical, "POSTAGE TRANSFER SHEET"
    TextBox3.SetFocus
    
ElseIf OptionButton15.Value = False And OptionButton16.Value = False Then
    Cancel = 1
    MsgBox "SECURITY QUESTION NOT ANSWERED", vbCritical, "POSTAGE TRANSFER SHEET"
    
ElseIf OptionButton12.Value = False And OptionButton13.Value = False Then
    Cancel = 1
    MsgBox "YOU MUST SELECT A USER NAME OPTION", vbCritical, "POSTAGE TRANSFER SHEET"
    
ElseIf TextBox9.Visible = True And TextBox9.Text = "" Then
    Cancel = 1
    MsgBox "EBAY USERNAME NOT ENTERED", vbCritical, "POSTAGE TRANSFER SHEET"
    TextBox9.SetFocus
    
ElseIf TextBox4.Visible = True And TextBox4.Text = "" Then
    Cancel = 1
    MsgBox "TRACKING NUMBER NOT ENTERED", vbCritical, "POSTAGE TRANSFER SHEET"
    TextBox4.SetFocus
    
ElseIf OptionButton1.Value = False And OptionButton2.Value = False And OptionButton3.Value = False Then
    Cancel = 1
    MsgBox "You Must Select An Ebay Account", vbCritical, "POSTAGE TRANSFER SHEET"
    
ElseIf OptionButton4.Value = False And OptionButton5.Value = False And OptionButton6.Value = False Then
    Cancel = 1
    MsgBox "You Must Select An Origin", vbCritical, "POSTAGE TRANSFER SHEET"
    
ElseIf OptionButton7.Value = False And OptionButton10.Value = False And OptionButton17.Value = False Then
    Cancel = 1
    MsgBox "You Must Select An Postal Company", vbCritical, "POSTAGE TRANSFER SHEET"
        
ElseIf OptionButton13.Value = True And TextBox9.Value = "" Then
    Cancel = 1
    MsgBox "YOU MUST ENTER A EBAY USER NAME", vbCritical, "POSTAGE TRANSFER SHEET"
    TextBox9.SetFocus
    
ElseIf OptionButton18.Value = False And OptionButton19.Value = False Then
    Cancel = 1
    MsgBox "HYPERLINK PHOTO QUESTION NOT ANSWERED", vbCritical, "POSTAGE TRANSFER SHEET"

Here is a test file if you could take a look please

TEST FILE DOWNLOAD

Top left of worksheet select OPEN FORM
Complete the fields etc & make sure you select YES to PHOTO HYPERLINK.
Once done select POSTAGE SHEET TRANSFER BUTTON.

Now on my pc if the photo file is missing ftrom the folder or spelt wrong you should see a message to advise you.
I no longer see this message.

If photo is present & spelt correctly etc then close the form & the customer in question should have been selected in column B of the last row & its hyperlink to the photo applied.
This no longer happens

Many Thanks.

So i found the issue & now need some advice please on how to correctly write it.

The issue is this piece of code.

VBA Code:
        If OptionButton19 = True Then
        Exit Sub
        End If
        
        If OptionButton18 = True Then

On my userform i have OptionBUtton18 which is labeled YES & OptionButton19 which is labeled NO
This relates to whether there is a photo to hyperlink to the customer in question.

The existing code i thought worked like so.
If OptionButton19 "NO" = True/Selected then there is no photo to hyperlink so just continue.

If OptionButton18 "YES" = True/Selected then there is a photo to hyperlink so continue with the hyperlink code below.

Basically i deleted the code shown above in this post & hyperlink worked fine.

What i do notice is if there isnt a photo to hyperlink i have no way of advising the code that as i deleted it & thus because a photo isnt present in the path to photo folder i then see Msgbox advising no photo found.

So please advise how i write it correctly the OptionButton Yes / No part

Thanks
