List Hyperlinks in Excel

I ahve an Excel work book containing a large number of sheets. Each sheet has between 1 and 12 Hyperlinks to different documents on a website. These dicuments are updated from time to time. I would like a macro that lists all the Hyperlinks in a new sheet but also lists the sheet name next to each link. I have the following that lists the Hyperlinks and the cell ref

Sub CopyHyperLinks()  
  Dim rCell As Range 
  Dim ws As Worksheet 
  Dim Lhyper As Long                  
  On Error Resume Next 
  Application.DisplayAlerts = False 
  Sheets("Hypers").Delete 
  On Error Goto 0 
  Application.DisplayAlerts = True 
  Sheets.Add().Name = "Hypers" 

  For Each ws In Worksheets
    If ws.Name <> "Hypers" Then 
      For Lhyper = 1 To ws.UsedRange.Hyperlinks.Count  
        ws.Hyperlinks(Lhyper).Range.Copy 
        With Sheets("Hypers").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(x1Up)  
          .Offset(1, 0).PasteSpecial
          .Offset(1, 1) = ws.Hyperlinks(Lhyper).Range.Address 
        End
        Application.CutCopyMode = False 
       Next Lhyper 
     End If 
  Next ws 
End Sub

How can i modify this to show the sheet name instead of the cell ref. is it also possible to then check that these Hyperlinks are valid destinations?

You can get the name of the worksheet of the hyperlink with this line:

ws.Hyperlinks(Lhyper)..Range.Worksheet.Name

Here's is your reworked code (it contained some other syntactical errors that I corrected):

Sub CopyHyperLinks()
    Dim rCell As Range
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Dim Lhyper As Long
    Dim rngLink As Range

    Application.DisplayAlerts = False

    On Error Resume Next
    Sheets("Hypers").Delete

    On Error GoTo 0
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True

    Sheets.Add().Name = "Hypers"

    For Each ws In Worksheets
        If ws.Name <> "Hypers" Then
            For Lhyper = 1 To ws.UsedRange.Hyperlinks.Count
                Set rngLink = ws.Hyperlinks(Lhyper).Range
                rngLink.Copy
                With Sheets("Hypers").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp)
                    .Offset(1, 0).PasteSpecial
                    .Offset(1, 1) = rngLink.Address
                    .Offset(1, 2) = rngLink.Worksheet.Name
                    .Offset(1, 3) = CheckHyperlink(ws.Hyperlinks(Lhyper).Address)
                End With
                Application.CutCopyMode = False
            Next Lhyper
        End If
    Next ws
End Sub

If you want to verify the links, include the code from this answer. Include this line in your code:

.Offset(1, 3) = CheckHyperlink(ws.Hyperlinks(Lhyper).Address)

and also this routine:

Public Function CheckHyperlink(ByVal strUrl As String) As Boolean

    Dim oHttp As New MSXML2.XMLHTTP30

    On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
    oHttp.Open "HEAD", strUrl, False
    oHttp.send

    If Not oHttp.Status = 200 Then CheckHyperlink = False Else CheckHyperlink = True

    Exit Function

ErrorHandler:
    CheckHyperlink = False
End Function

You need to include a reference to the "Microsoft XML" library in your VBA project.
