Try setting up the hyperlink manually by browsing to the correct location.
Compare what is built there with what your link looks like and see if there
is a difference.

This character looks funny §§

Maybe it is a font or language setting thing.

btw.:

the behaviour shows the same wrong behaviour if i insert the link below
into
a word *.doc

so this seems to be a systematic issue within office.

if you right click on the cell and choose edit hyperlink, does it look
proper? Does it offer hyperlink as a popup menu option? If not, excel
isn't seeing it as a hyperlink.

Hi,

within a makro, i import stuff from a web database in order to control
change requests worked of eithin this database.

after this procedure there are lots of hyperlinks like



http://erls3iga.ww007.siemens.net:21...wPage=Packages.

asp&NewPars=action§§display§§unqid§§40C6407C-266D-4A40-9EF4-84FADC9855A1
(This is some Intranet thing, the link won't work at WWW)

If i copy&paste the Hyperlink with IE, everything is fine.
The correct page is opened
If i copy&paste to mail, again everything is fine.
But from within the excel-sheet this link does not work - even if i do
the
stuff manually.

Is Excel 're-parsing' before calling or do the '=' within the link
disturb
excel or ... ?

Any Idea will be helpful.

regards, Fritz
