Additionally, I extracted this table from an Excel spreadsheet I’ve been using to track my own progress.
Quite simply, I have a table created with some hyperlinks and percentages in it, and I’ve added a column that uses the CONCAT() Excel function to string together the various parts into the MarkDown text.
It’s a bit archaic, but it does the job.
=CONCAT("| ", [@['#]], " | ", [@Task], " | [", [@Platform], "](", [@Link], " """, [@Platform], """) | ", TEXT([@[% Complete]], "0%"), " | [", [@Acclaim], "](", GetURL([@Acclaim]), ") |")
Produces a line like:
| 1 | C# Basics for Beginners | [Udemy](https://www.udemy.com/csharp-tutorial-for-beginners/ "Udemy") | 100% | [UC-YFS0VOJJ](https://www.udemy.com/certificate/UC-YFS0VOJJ/) |
Which I can just copy and paste into this MarkDown file. Additionally, to save a column, for no good reason, I created the GetURL() function, which extracts the URL text from a hyperlink in a given cell so I could use both the text and the URL in the MarkDown extraction.
Function GetURL(rng As Range) As String
On Error Resume Next
GetURL = rng.Hyperlinks(1).Address
End Function
That’s it for now. Check back for more updates!
