Hi
I hope someone can help with the following issue. I have created an Excel Spreadsheet which contains a list of UK hills and their Ordnance Survey grid references. I want the users to be able to click on a cell containing the grid reference and get a map showing the location. The cell containing the OS Grid Ref is E21 (E22, E23, etc) I have created text in cell M21 with ="http://uk.multimap.com/map/places.cgi?quicksearch="&E21 I have then used a function picked up from a web site referenced in this group. =HYPERLINK(M21) The function reads; Function HyperlinkAddress(cell) As String If cell.Hyperlinks.Count 0 Then _ HyperlinkAddress = cell.Hyperlinks(1).Address End Function This all works perfectly except it displays an excessively log line of text; http://uk.multimap.com/map/places.cg...earch=SO997246 What I would like is for the cell to just display SO997246 (or whatever the reference for the current hill is) but still be clickable and go to the correct page. Thanks in Advance James |
