2002 Hyperlink issues
 

I'm prototyping some basic functions before building a large workbook and
populating it with hard data. I have 2002 on this machine which is ok because
my employer only has 2003 on the servers, and that's where the workbook will
be deployed. I need the user to be able to jump to a cell, either on the
current worksheet, or another worksheet in the same workbook. Sounds easy.
I've used the "Insert Hyperlink" command, and I've also used the "Hyperlink"
function, manually typed. I believe I have the syntax correct because the
Hyperlink is created in the originating cell (with the correct text
displayed). When I click on the hyperlink, I get the message "Excel cannot
open the specified file". Obviously the file is already open? I've been down
the road of setting 'File-Properties' and setting the default path.
What am I doing wrong?
