I've converted some of my files to xlsx format for testing and noticed that hyperlinks are not saved in this format. If I create one (Format->Link...) it works untill I close the PlanMaker. When I reopen the file the text is there, but the link is gone.

Links in xls and pmd format work correctly.

(using rev 656)

Edit: image links are preserved, but get altered on save - ie. in a new document I insert an image and add to it a link that should normally open another file. When I save the file as xlsx the image and link are still there, but when I click on the image my internet browser starts and instead of opening the other file I can download it ;p ('file:///' is added to the link)

I can reproduce this problem here and informed the developers. Thank you!

Now I think it's not only xlsx format that has this bug. Some time ago I saved an xls file (97/2000/XP/2003 format) which contained many hyperlinks. Today I noticed that many of those links are not working The text is blue and underlined, but I can't click on it.

Using PlanMaker 2012 (656)

Could you provide a small sample file? Thank you!

This file was created in PlanMaker. All links were made with 'Format -> Link...' tool. They all worked before I saved the file. Now only few links are working (they are black now - all non working links are blue).

Thank you! I will inform the developers.

Sorry to report that it's still not working correctly.

It seems that links are now assigned to cells - if all text in the cell is a link than it's saved as link, but if ie. a cell contains a sentence in which only one word is a link - it's not saved.

There are also some issues with image links:
- File links are converted to URL links on save
- 'In this document' links are not saved corretly (don't work after I re-open the file)

I tested this with latest PlanMaker (664) and only in docx document.

Could you please attach a sample where this problem happens? Thank you!

My apologies to the developer team - after some testing I must admit that there is nothing wrong with text links.

Lets say I have 'This is my file' text in a cell. I want to add a link only to 'file' word. PlanMaker allows that, but after I save and reopen the file, the link is gone. That's why I thought there's a bug in PlanMaker. But I checked Excel today, and it doesn't allow that at all (whole 'This is my file' must be a link).

I've also made a test file for text and image links. Please, make sure you extract both files in the same directory.

There are two issues with image links:
1. 'Test file link' and 'Test file image link' work exactly the same in Excel, but if you open the file in PlanMaker you'll see that image link is not interpreted correctly - it's treated as URL link.
2. If you save the file in xlsx format 'Test name image link' will not work anymore.

Thank you for the info! I can reproduce both issues you reported and informed the developers.
