Hide Hyperlink Address
 

Good Afternoon All,

I've created an Excel spreadsheet that I've made to look like a Web
Delivered survey. At the bottom of each page, I've set a Shape Object button
to serve as the page advancement since I've hidden the tabs via a Macro.

My question is - can I hide the Hyperlink address? If someone hovers over
the Shape/Object button for more than a second, the address appears and looks
kind of tacky. It ruins the illusion that this is in fact not a Web Survey
and is actually just an Excel Doc. dressed up to imitate one (mind you that
the users of this sheet are used to on-line appearing surveys).

Thank you for your thoughts and any advice you might have - Jenny B.

At the top right of the Create Hyperlink Dialog box is the Screen Tip button
to enter a friendly name
Don't pretend you've made something you can't

No. You cannot hide a Hyperlink Address.

Note:

If you associate a reference to sheet without screen tip, you will still
notice that the hyperlink showing the refernce of the Workbook name, sheet
and the cell address.

Important:

If you rename a worksheet after creating a hyperlink, then you loose the
rreference, and the error message displays "Reference is not valid". In such
case, you have to edit the hyperlink again.
