Detect Hyperlink Type

An Excel file can have different types of hyperlinks like external, cell reference, file path, etc. Aspose.Cells for JavaScript via C++ supports the feature to detect the type of hyperlink. The types of hyperlinks are represented by the TargetModeType Enumeration. The TargetModeType Enumeration has the following members.

External: External link
FilePath: Local and full path to files/folders.
Email: Email
CellReference: Link to cell or named range.

To check the type of hyperlink, the Hyperlink class provides a linkType property with a return type of TargetModeType. The following code snippet demonstrates the use of the linkType property by using this source excel file.
