    Make Hyperlink read cell contents

    If I have this hyperlink
    HTML Code: 
    Is there a way I can make a column in Excel and 5 rows of part numbers and make the hyperlink read it?
    Can I make this hyperlink generate based on the info in my sheet?

    These are 2 sample part numbers. I can go up to partNo3,4,5
    Ideas?

    Yes, but ...

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook.

    So I got it to work below with this formula. How can I turn it into a hyperlink?

    Did you try:

    =HYPERLINK(CONCATENATE(A25,"partNo1=",partNo1,"&","partNo2=",partNo2,,"&","partNo3=",PartNo3,"&","partNo4=",partNo4,"&","partNo5=",partNo5))

    Try without the double comma after partNo2:

    =HYPERLINK(CONCATENATE(A25,"partNo1=",partNo1,"&","partNo2=",partNo2,"&","partNo3=",PartNo3,"&","partNo4=",partNo4,"&","partNo5=",partNo5))

    OK - well, sorry - without seeing it in situ, there's nothing more I can do.

    There's nothing in A25 in your sample workbook.
