Bill, I was afraid I might confuse you. What I was trying to say was
that I put a url in the hyperlink address in the word doc and it did
link to the url as I entered it, but ignored everything after the
"htm".

What I have is a Word doc that I save as a webpage. Within that page,
I have links to the spreadsheet that I also save as a webpage. I ftp
both of them to a webhost for access, along with several other files.

In the Word doc, I want to link to the spreadsheet and that works. But
it goes to what ever sheet happened to be open when the spreadsheet was
saved. I need for it to go to a particular sheet depending on which
link was selected. In the "source" page, http://tinyurl.com/yoytk4

the top cabin link (7172) should go to deck7 tab in the spreadsheet and
the next one down (9594) should go to the deck9 tab. Both go to the
index tab as that is what was active when I saved it. The spreadsheet
url is: http://tinyurl.com/256omk

You have no idea how grateful I am that you are trying to help me. My
alternative is to have an individual spreadsheet saved as htm for all
the tabs and maintaining 9 files is far more trouble than just one. I
sure hope what I want to do is possible. I need to be able to do this
using the functionality built in as I do not know vb programming.

Thank you so much.
