Answer: Hyperlink - reference not valid
It sounds like the hyperlink you created may not be pointing to the correct location or the file path may be incorrect. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
- Double-check the file path: Make sure the file path you entered in the hyperlink is correct and the file is located in the specified location. If the file has been moved or renamed, the hyperlink may no longer work.
- Check the sheet name and cell reference: Make sure the sheet name and cell reference in the hyperlink are correct. If the sheet name or cell reference has been changed, the hyperlink may not work.
- Try creating a new hyperlink: If the above steps don't work, try creating a new hyperlink. Select the cell where you want to create the hyperlink, then go to Insert Hyperlink. Choose "Existing File or Web Page" and browse to the file you want to link to. Make sure to append the sheet name and cell reference to the file path as before.
- Check for special characters: If the sheet name or cell reference contains special characters, such as spaces or punctuation marks, make sure to enclose them in single quotes. For example, if the sheet name is "Public Service" and the cell reference is "D4", the hyperlink should be:
Formula:
'Public Service'!D4
Hopefully one of these steps will help resolve the issue with your hyperlink. Let me know if you have any other questions or if there's anything else I can help with.
