hyperlinks
 

How can I set a range of cells to be hyperlinks to what's in the cell?
I have a range that concatenates two cells and I want the results in that
cell to open a web page.
ie
cell A1 "baseball"
cell A2 ="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/"&A1
Would like to click on A2 and have it go to link
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball

hyperlinks
 

=HYPERLINK("http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball",A1)

Even more flexibility. Use
=HYPERLINK(A2)&A1
a1=baseball
a2=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/

Thanks to both, works exactly as I want it to. Next time I'll try and have
something a little more challenging for you.
