You can check the documents using a function similar to

Code:

Function IsThisLinkUsedIn(strLink As String, oDoc As Document) As Boolean
Dim oLink As Hyperlink
    For Each oLink In oDoc.Hyperlinks
        If oLink.Address = strLink Then
            IsThisLinkUsedIn = True
            Exit For
        End If
    Next oLink
    Set oLink = Nothing
End Function

e.g.

Code:

Sub Macro1()
MsgBox IsThisLinkUsedIn("https://www.gmayor.com/Word_pages.htm", ActiveDocument)
End Sub

Loop through the documents in a folder and check each one with the function and stop looping when you find the document that returns True. The link string must be the exact address of the link.
