When you need to extract all hyperlinks in one or more emails, it is stupid to copy them one by one. This post will teach you a method to rapidly export all hyperlinks in many emails to Excel.
For some reasons, such as logging the hyperlinks in all of your sent emails, you’ll need to extract the hyperlinks. Without any doubts, it’s inadvisable to extract and copy them manually. You must long for a much smarter approach, such as using VBA. Here we will share you such a piece of VBA code, which is able to export all the hyperlinks in many emails to Excel via an easy click.
Export All Hyperlinks in Multiple Emails to Excel
- To start with, launch your Outlook program as normal.
- Then, in the Outlook window, you need to hit the “Alt + F11” key buttons.
- At once, you will get access to Outlook VBA editor.
- Subsequently, you need to enable “Microsoft Word Object Library” as well as “Microsoft Excel Object Library”. Click “Tools” > “References” and then enable them in the popup dialog box.
- Next, you need to open an unused module, in which you have to copy the VBA code below into this module.
Dim objExcelApp As Excel.Application Dim objExcelWorkbook As Excel.Workbook Dim objExcelWorksheet As Excel.Worksheet Sub ExportAllHyperlinksInMultipleEmailsToExcel() Dim objSelection As Selection Dim objMail As MailItem Dim objMailDocument As Document Dim objHyperlink As Hyperlink Dim i As Long Set objSelection = Outlook.Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection If Not (objSelection Is Nothing) Then Set objExcelApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application") Set objExcelWorkbook = objExcelApp.Workbooks.Add Set objExcelWorksheet = objExcelWorkbook.Sheets(1) objExcelApp.Visible = True objExcelWorkbook.Activate With objExcelWorksheet .Cells(1, 1) = "No." .Cells(1, 2) = "Displaying Text" .Cells(1, 3) = "Address" .Cells(1, 4) = "Source Mail" End With On Error Resume Next i = 0 For Each objMail In objSelection objMail.Display Set objMailDocument = objMail.GetInspector.WordEditor If objMailDocument.Hyperlinks.Count > 0 Then For Each objHyperlink In objMailDocument.Hyperlinks If InStr(objHyperlink.Address, "www.") > 0 Then i = i + 1 Call ExportToExcel(i, objMail, objHyperlink) End If Next End If objMail.Close olDiscard Next objExcelWorksheet.Columns("A:D").AutoFit End If End Sub Sub ExportToExcel(n As Long, objCurrentMail As MailItem, objCurrentHyperlink As Hyperlink) Dim nLastRow As Integer nLastRow = objExcelWorksheet.Range("A" & objExcelWorksheet.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1 objExcelWorksheet.Range("A" & nLastRow) = n objExcelWorksheet.Range("B" & nLastRow) = objCurrentHyperlink.TextToDisplay objExcelWorksheet.Range("C" & nLastRow) = objCurrentHyperlink.Address objExcelWorksheet.Range("D" & nLastRow) = objCurrentMail.Subject End Sub
- After that, you can exit the current VBA editor window.
- Later access “Outlook Options” to customize Quick Access Toolbar to add the newly added macro to Quick Access Toolbar.
- Finally you can take a shot:
- First off, in the email list, select the emails whose hyperlinks you wish to extract.
- Then, click on the macro button in Quick Access Toolbar.
- When the macro finishes, you will get an Excel file, like the image below:
