I'm using Excel to maintain an index of topics in a magazine, using 4
columns of information (topic, issue number, page numbers, sort key).

As I add the information for more issues of the magazine, I re-sort the
lines, first by topic and then by sort key, which is just the issue
number of the magazine. Once this is done, I copy and paste the range
containing the first three columns of information into a web page.

I want to link some of the cells to magazine articles that are
available online, but when I re-sort the lines, the hyperlinks seem to
get mixed up. Some cells that had hyperlinks before the sort don't have
them after the sort, and some that didn't have hyperlinks before the
sort do afterwards.

Anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Some entire issues of the magazine are online as one pdf file, so I
will want to link a whole string of cells to the same location. I've
been doing this by hyperlinking one cell and then copying and pasting
that cell. Is this causing my problem? Do I have to highlight and
insert the hyperlink to each cell individually?

What seems to be happening is that the hyperlink stays on the same
line, even after the sort. For example, if I create a hyperlink in cell
A312 and then perform a sort, the information in A312 may be moved to
A125, but the hyperlink stays in cell A312 and A125 doesn't have a
hyperlink.
