Default Creating HyperLinks in VB

Added a few lines and insterted a few "" to make it work for me. I
only get the error when the sheet "strENGINE" does not exist.

Sub mytest5()
Dim i
i = 4
Sheets(2).Cells(i + 5, 2).Value = "strENGINE"
Sheets(2).Cells(i + 5, 2).Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="",
SubAddress:= _
"'" & "strENGINE" & "'!A1", TextToDisplay:="strENGINE"
With Selection.Font
.Name = "Arial"
.FontStyle = "Regular"
.Size = 14
.Strikethrough = False
.Superscript = False
.Subscript = False
.OutlineFont = False
.Shadow = False
.Underline = xlUnderlineStyleSingle
.ColorIndex = 5
End With
End Sub

Hi!

I'm using the following code to try and create automatic HyperLinks in my
workbook:

Sheet2.Cells(i + 5, 2).Value = strENGINE
Sheet2.Cells(i + 5, 2).Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:= _
"'" & strENGINE & "'!A1", TextToDisplay:=strENGINE
With Selection.Font
.Name = "Arial"
.FontStyle = "Regular"
.Size = 14
.Strikethrough = False
.Superscript = False
.Subscript = False
.OutlineFont = False
.Shadow = False
.Underline = xlUnderlineStyleSingle
.ColorIndex = 5
End With

where strENGINE is the name of a worksheet in the same workbook. However,
when I click on the created link, I get a "Reference is not valid." error.
What can I do to correct this?

Note, strENGINE may contain a hypen in it - does this cause issues as well?

Thanks!
