Default Why is hyperlink function inactive sometimes?

A guy I work with found what my issue was. The hyperlink function is not
active when the "Share Workbook" function is enabled. Disabling this feature
allows hyperlinks to be inserted.

Thanks

Thanks - I followed the path you described and the internet feature was
already checked. I usually follow the InsertHyperlink feature but this
dioesn't work all of the time.

You are correct! Say you click on a cell and type
http://www.cnn.com
and you want the link to be "clickable. BEFORE typing the hyperlink:

Tools Options Spelling AutoCorrect AutoFormat as you type and
check the Internet & Newwork paths checkbox.

I've noticed that in some excel files the hyperlink function is active, but
in other files it is not active. I haven't been able to figure out why some
files work and some don't. Is there some sort of worksheet protection
feature that allows some editing but does not allow hyperlinks?

Thanks
