Welcome to the forum.
So does the file exist at the address used?

Hi AliGW,
Thanks for quick response. i attached the file sample and put some note for better understanding. hope you can help me on this matter..
See here:
https://exceljet.net/formula/build-h...k-with-vlookup
Either use this:
=HYPERLINK("https://"&VLOOKUP(D6,Database!$B$4:$E$15,4,0))
or change your lookup table:
Excel 2016 (Windows) 32 bit
B C D E 3Product Description Type Link 4Product 1 Fixed Type 1 https://www.google.com
Sheet: Database
Thank you for your help.. link working perfectly for the website . but one more issue, there is some internal hyperlink which I need also to link which is not working now. same as "pdf file"..... i make hyperlink from the database but I cant open from the main sheet (link column).. hope you can solve also this matter.. thank you again
It will be the same basic issue - the lookup table needs to include the FULL path.
