    Jump to sheet based on selection from list

    HI

    I would like to be able to jump to a different sheet based on a selection chosen from a list. I know how to create a list but I am not sure how to link this to changing sheets.

    Anyone know how to do this?

    Thanks

    Rich

    This is functionality that already exists in Excel. No need to re-invent the wheel.

    Use the sheet navigation buttons that show in each Excel workbook in the lower left hand corner, just above the status bar. Right-click in the area of the arrows for First/previous/next/last sheet and a dialog will pop up showing the sheets of the workbook. Click one to activate it. If the workbook has more than 15 sheets, click "More Sheets" to see more sheets.

    Put your sheet names in column A like:

    Sheet1
    Sheet2
    Sheet3

    In B1 enter:

    =HYPERLINK("#" &A1 & "!A1", A1)

    and copy down.
