Excel hyperlink to a specific cell

Question

I need to hyperlink a cell in one spreadsheet to a corresponding cell in another spreadsheet. So for example, C7 in sheet1 has a hyperlink that will bring you to C7 in sheet

Answer 1

You can use the following excel formula: (paste into cell C7)

=HYPERLINK("[Book1.xlsx]Sheet2!"&CELL("address",C7),"click")

Notes:

• [Book1.xlsx] must be the name of the workbook
• Sheet2 must nbe name name of the sheet you are hyperlinking to

Essentially it uses the above two as a prefix to the link, and then the address of the current cell (c7 in the case of your example) to finish the link.

The above example once pasted into cell C7 can be dragged down to generate links based on the formula cell's address.

Update: (per chris)

=HYPERLINK("#'Sheet2'!"&CELL("address"),"click")
