    Angry Indirect Drop down List hyperlink

    Hello there, i am new to this forum and looking for some serious help.
    i have a dependent drop down list using the indirect function and i am trying to use a hyperlink function to navigate around my workbook.
    i have 100+Pages and all page names are the same as the dependent drop down output.
    The formula i am trying to use is -
    =Hyperlink("#"&K8&"!A1","GO!")
    Drop down is in cell K8 and i need it to go to the page selected in drop down Cell A1.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Kind regards, Ollie

    Hello Ollie
    You don't clearly describe what problem you're encountering, so I'm assuming the formula is returning an 'Invalid Reference'. Your formula seems correct, the only problem I can foresee is if your Page names (Sheets) contain spaces. In which case your formula would need amending with two apostrophes ('). One after the hash (#) and one before the exclamation mark (!).See below:
