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".

THE PATH SHOWS CORRECTLLY

ANY THOUGHTS

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.

Hi Pete

The formula below has been accepted
=HYPERLINK("'"&LEFT(CELL("Filename",A1),SEARCH("[",CELL("filename",A1))-25)&"Merchandise
Package\[Mechandise Spreadsheet.xls]Mechandise
Spreadsheet'!A"&((ROW()-4)*103+8),"view")

This has changed the prompt to
" an unexpected error has occurred"

I know we are so near to getting this which will help me tremendously but!!
so far

Any more thoughts
