Default Excel and Email addresses

Hi Pete:

Let's say column A has text like:



but all "cold". In an adjacent cell, enter:

=HYPERLINK("mailto:" & A1,A1) and copy down to get a nice "clickable" set of
links.

Hi,
I tried this and got a blue underlined email address. When I move the
cursor over it, it does show: mail to: the address, when when I click itr, it
does not open my mail app, but instead tells me "Cannot open specified file",
where the file is the worksheet where the email address is situated. I use
OSX on the mac. Any ideas? Thanks
