Well, you could have a hyperlink formula controlled by some IF
function. Give us some more details of what you want to achieve.

Hi ,
Example is in A1 =Main Project Name
Under this Main Project name , there are 3 more sub projects that I want to
link the details. Work sheet is only visible with MainProject .

I'm sorry, but that doesn't make any sense to me.

Please try to describe what you have and what you want to do with it.

You could use three textboxes that fit over the cell. Each one should be
linked to a macro that follows a particular hyperlink.

In a simple way, If possible I need to have 3 links in a single cell (Project
Name), because this particular Project has 3 documents lying in other
places. In a normal sitiuation I have to type the same Project name in 3
different cell range (A1,A2 and A3) and link it individually to 3 different
Docs.

e.g.
A1= "Project A" link to Doc1
A2 = "Project A" link to Doc2
A3 = "Project A" link to Doc3

Did you use the textbox from the Drawing toolbar?

Try right clicking on it once more by the edge.

But I'd use a rectangle from the drawing toolbar instead.

Shapes do not have hyperlinks. But you can format the text to look like
hyperlinks, and assign a macro to each textbox/rectangle. The macro
needs this line of code:

ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink sAddress

where sAddress is the address of the hyperlink.

Yes, assigning a macro would work, but so should assigning a hyperlink.

Try this.

Open only Doc1, Doc2, Doc3

Save As a workspace(*.resume.xlw) file then close.

Now hyperlink to that file through InsertHyperlinkExisting file or
webpage.

All three Docs will open from that one hyperlink.

OK

You simply want to open 3 web page documents when you click on the
hyperlink?

How about you create a *.bat file to open the three docs?

Hyperlink to that *.bat file
