Default Hyperlink window problem

Hey Smart Guys!

I have a spreadsheet with a hyperlink for each row of
information. The hyperlink opens a website with a Java
TIFF viewer application. It's in a new window, but it
lands right on top of the excel spreadsheet. I need to
tell it to open in a new window with a a different
coordinate. My user needs to view the doc and enter items
from the viewable into the spreadsheet. At least 100
every week. It takes too much time to move the window
everytime.

I've tried using a javascript and several other things to
make it happen, but I'm missing something.

Thanks for the help!

well you could just use a vba form with a browser control on it.
then you have control of the forms properties such as where it opens

how do you call the java tiff deal?

Default Hyperlink window problem

The Java Tiff viewer is activated as part of the execution
of the following link. I'm not savvy enough to figure out
what's going on behind the scenes at this point.

http://www.countyclerk.bexar.landata...wDocument.asp?
iRecordID=11557&System=FN&RecID=11528

If you throw this into a browser, it resizes the browser
and opens the tiff on the left side of the screen, which
would work great for us.

As an excel hyperlink, the new window sits on top of the
excel window, which is annoying.

I've got a steep learning curve ahead of me to be able to
build a vba form as you suggested. At this point I think
I get the concept, but have no clue where to start. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
