    Hi Y'all

    I hope you can help.

    Many thanks

    Changed concept.

    The left column in the extra table is the Column B description and the right column is the actual pdf filename. (without extension)

    By selecting a cell in B-Column the description is looked up in extra table and the linked pdf-file is opened.

    You can put the extra table out of sight if you like.
