Hi userman,

When you want to provide files, please attach them here. You can do that via the paperclip symbol on the 'Go Advanced' tab.

In your spreadsheet, you say 'in each of the yellow cells, a number of pdfs will be linked'. That simply isn't possible. Excel can only hyperlink to one location per cell.

You also have a block of yellow cells with the notation 'here should go pdf#', where # is a number. While it is possible to attach files to cell locations, this isn't a good idea for a number of reasons including that it makes the Excel workbook:
• harder to maintain;
• slower to open and use;
• much larger (by an amount greater than the embedded file sizes);
• more prone to coruption - which could lose all your data;
• more likely to become out of date, with the contents no longer reflecting what's held in external PDFs, with all the consequences that can entail.
