How to make a loop script for Google sheet?












2














I wanted to have a script that will change text to a hyperlink using script. I have column D in Google sheet from D1:D, for example:



12346
34566
23456
23455... and so on...


Currently, I'm using this script, this is for a specific tab named Sheet1 only.



function makeLink() {

var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();

var aCell = ss.getRange("D1"), value = aCell.getValue();
aCell.setValue('=HYPERLINK("https://sellercentral.amazon.com/hzefad/orders/&orderId='+value+'","'+value+'")');
var aCell = ss.getRange("D2"), value = aCell.getValue();
aCell.setValue('=HYPERLINK("https://sellercentral.amazon.com/hzefad/orders/&orderId='+value+'","'+value+'")');
var aCell = ss.getRange("D3"), value = aCell.getValue();
aCell.setValue('=HYPERLINK("https://sellercentral.amazon.com/hzefad/orders/&orderId='+value+'","'+value+'")');
var aCell = ss.getRange("D4"), value = aCell.getValue();
aCell.setValue('=HYPERLINK("https://sellercentral.amazon.com/hzefad/orders/&orderId='+value+'","'+value+'")');
var aCell = ss.getRange("D5"), value = aCell.getValue();
}


Is there a way to to use looping for me to shorten my script?

          You can use something like this:



          i = 1
          while (true) {
          var range = ss.getRange("D" + i);
