    Smile Hyperlink using indirect function

    Hi there,

    I have the below formula which I'm using across several cells. The $A$1, which locates a particular tab from a drop down list, is interchangeable.

    The formula below works exactly how I want it to, all i'd like to do is add hyperlinking functionality to it - so when I click on the cell it automatically takes me to the particular tab in question.

    =IFERROR(INDIRECT("'" & $A$1 & "'!$CY$18"),"Data Not Measured")

    How do I go about doing this?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Something like this

    =HYPERLINK("#"&A1&"!B3",IFERROR(INDIRECT("'" & $A$1 & "'!$CY$18"),"Data Not Measured"))

    Will take you to cell B3 of the sheet whose name is in cell A1 of the sheet containing the formula. Note the use of the hash to denote the hyperlink is to a location within the same document.
