Excel function to do exactly the opposite of =HYPERLINK()
Hello,
Does Excel have a function which is exactly the opposite of =HYPERLINK()?
For example, using the =HYPERLINK() function, a long list of URLs in an Excel column can easily be converted to a corresponding list of hyperlinks in a different column.
I'm wondering if there is a function which, beginning with a long list of hyperlinks, will produce a corresponding list of URLs.
If not, what is the best workaround?
Thanks

A sample workbook along with the desired output mocked up manually would be helpful.

Copy list of URLs and Paste as Values in new range is what you want I believe
(I think Rgonzo1971 suggests that too)

A macro can do that too, the following code will copy the URL from any hyperlink in the spreadsheet to the column NEXT to it :)
Hyperlinks.xlsm
Sub ExtractHL()
Dim HL As Hyperlink
For Each HL In ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks
HL.Range.Offset(0, 1).Value = HL.Address
Next
End SubHyperlinks.xlsm
