Evaluate string as a formula
I have this concatentated string in cell D1: =CONCATENATE("=hyperlink('Sheet1'!C",A1,",""",B1," "")") Which appropriately creates a string of: =hyperlink('Sheet1'!C3,"Link me") My question is this: How do I get excel to evaluate that string as a formula? TIA Heather. -- peacelittleone ------------------------------------------------------------------------ peacelittleone's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=20937 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=382267 |

hi, Heather !
I have this concatentated string in cell D1: =CONCATENATE("=hyperlink('Sheet1'!C",A1,",""",B1," "")") Which appropriately creates a string of: =hyperlink('Sheet1'!C3,"Link me") My question is this: How do I get excel to evaluate that string as a formula? you can use 'directly' in D1: =hyperlink("#'sheet1'!c"&a1,b1) hth, hector. |

Thank you Hector! Now a follow-up...,. The hyperlink doesn't seem to work if the link is in the same workbook but on a different worksheet. Is there a different function I should be using?
