    Preserving URL with VLOOKUP where text doesn't match URL

    I am attempting to use VLOOKUP to bring over data from another worksheet along with the URL attached to the text.

    I tried using the following and it doesn't bring over the url but only the text data which is different from the url.

    =HYPERLINK(VLOOKUP(L2,SharepointPhotos!A2:B7014,2,FALSE))

    Worksheet 1- AllPhotos
    This worksheet is where I am trying to bring over data from SharepointPhotos with a match from column L2 of this worksheet.

    Worksheet 1- SharepointPhotos
    This worksheet contains the data I would like to bring over to the AllPhotos worksheet. Column A contains what I am matching to L2 of AllPhotos and Column B is what contains the data I need to bring over.

    I have also tried adding the following to the standard module along with the following code but it still doesn't work.

    Function GetHyperLink(r As Range) As String
    If r.Hyperlinks.Count Then
    GetHyperLink = r.Hyperlinks(1).Address
    End If
    End Function

    =HYPERLINK(GetHyperLink(INDEX(SharepointPhotos!$B$1:$B$7014,MATCH(L2,SharepointPhotos!$A$1:$A$7014,0))),(VLOOKUP(L2,SharepointPhotos!$A$1:$B$7014,2,FALSE)))

    Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks.

    I developed this piece of code for use in a different program. I have Topics in the "Link_list" named range and the hyperlink text in the cell to the right. The syntax of assigning the link may be of help to you.

    One spreadsheet to rule them all. One spreadsheet to find them. One spreadsheet to bring them all and at corporate, bind them.

    A picture is worth a thousand words, but a sample spreadsheet is more likely to be worked on.
