In a dedicated folder, a workbook named €œDashboard€�, with a single worksheet
(also named Dashboard), contains a matrix of Departments, with performance
ratings in three categories, A1, A2, and A3, in columns F, I, and L.
(Columns G and J are hidden.)

In that same folder are 51 workbooks for various Departments - example
below. These files are 6mb each.

The requirement: While users have Dashboard on screen, they want to click
on a particular cell, say Operations A1 (75%), cell F11, and have the
OperationsA1.xls file come on screen.

What would the code be to make this work? A quick open on the 6mb file
would be a big plus. The three ranges of €œclick€� cells would be F10:F17,
I10:I17, and L10:L17.

Is there a clean, efficient architecture to this project? Any suggestions
appreciated.

I plan to put a control button in Department worksheets to return to
Dashboard €“ or should this be done by code too?
