You can use the following vba code and input them into standard module in excel  A list of websites can be entered and should be entered like this on cell A1 in Excel - www stackoverflow com  ActiveSheet Cells 1 2  Value merely takes the number of website links that you have on cell B1 in Excel and will loop the code again and again based on number of website links you have placed on the sheet  Therefore Chrome will open up a new tab for each website link   I hope this helps with the dynamic website you have got   Sub multiplechrome        Dim WebUrl As String     Dim i As Integer      For i   1 To ActiveSheet Cells 1  2  Value         WebUrl    http      amp  Cells i  1  Value  amp               Shell   C  Program Files  x86  Google Chrome Application chrome exe -url    amp  WebUrl       Next End Sub

The answer given by  ray above works perfectly  but make sure you are using the right path to open up the file  If you right click on your icon and click properties  you should see where the actual path is  just copy past that and it should work

I found an easier way to do it and it works perfectly even if you don t know the path where the chrome is located   First of all  you have to paste this code in the top of the module   Option Explicit Private pWebAddress As String Public Declare Function ShellExecute Lib  shell32 dll  Alias  ShellExecuteA     ByVal hwnd As Long  ByVal lpOperation As String  ByVal lpFile As String    ByVal lpParameters As String  ByVal lpDirectory As String  ByVal nShowCmd As Long  As Long    After that you have to create this two modules   Sub LoadExplorer       LoadFile  Chrome exe    Here you are executing the chrome  exe End Sub  Sub LoadFile FileName As String      ShellExecute 0   Open   FileName   http   test 123       1   You can change the URL  End Sub   With this you will be able  if you want  to set a variable for the url or just leave it like hardcode   Ps  It works perfectly for others browsers just changing  Chrome exe  to opera  bing  etc
