Hi all
In this Formula how would one add the exact cell you would want to open at =HYPERLINK(LEFT(CELL("Filename",A1),SEARCH("[",CELL("filename",A1))-25))&"Merchandise Package\Mechandise Spreadsheet.xls" Ideally it would be along the lines of "&((ROW()-4)*103+8),"View") Thanks Stew |

Hello again, Stew.
You will need the sheet name as well as the column letter and row number, but you will also need to have square brackets around the filename and two apostrophes. So, try this: =HYPERLINK("'"&LEFT(CELL("Filename",A1),SEARCH("[",CELL("filename",A1))-25))&"M* erchandise Package\[Mechandise Spreadsheet.xls]Sheet1'! A"&((ROW()-4)*103+8),"View") I assume that the LEFT function does return the full path to that point and ends in \. Hope this helps.

Dear Pete
Thanks again for looking at this =HYPERLINK(LEFT(CELL("Filename",A1),SEARCH("[",CELL("filename",A1))-25))&"MÂ*erchandise Package\Mechandise Spreadsheet.xls" exactly as you see it gets me to Merchandise spreadsheet. If I add \. IT ALSO DOES THE JOB IF I ADD THE CHANGES IN THE WAY YOU SUGGEST IT WILL NOT ACCEPT THE FORMULA. iF i REMOVE "vIEW" THE FORMULA IS ACCEPTED BUT WHEN I TRY TO USE COMES BACK WITH THE PROMPT " CANNOT OPEN SPECIFIED FILE".

If you check out the formula I gave you then immediately after the
=HYPERLINK( part I had "'"& (quotes apostrophe quotes). This adds in the apostrophe to match with the one at the end of the sheet name. Hope this helps.

Well, one thing is are you sure you have spelt the names of the folder, file
and sheet correctly? You have Merchandise Package as the folder name, but you use Mechandise for both the filename and sheetname - is there an "r" missing? If you remove the ,"view" from the end of the formula then it will show the complete path in the cell (you might need to widen it to see all of it), so check this out thoroughly to see that it matches exactly where you want to go to.

Okay, have experimented and researched a bit - the square brackets need to
encompass the full path and filename, and the apostrophes only the sheetname, so try this: =HYPERLINK("["&LEFT(CELL("Filename",A1),SEARCH("[",CELL("filename",A1))-25)&"Merchandise Package\Merchandise Spreadsheet.xls]'Merchandise Spreadsheet'!A"&((ROW()-4)*103+8),"View") Hope this helps.

Well, I'm so very pleased to hear that, Stew.
I should have remembered from a thread I contributed to in August that the syntax for hyperlinks is slightly different than for other Excel functions. Glad we got there in the end !!
