    Hello Pradeep,

    welcome to the forum.

    I realise that English is probably not your first language (nor mine), but I'm afraid your question is not very clear. Could you please try and explain a bit more? Please use short sentences and some punctuation, so we better understand what you want to achieve.

    It might be helpful to attach a sample workbook to illustrate what you want to do.
    You can upload a file by clicking "Go Advanced" below the Quick Reply box and then the paper clip icon.

    cheers

    Hello Pradeesh,

    please don't quote whole posts, it's just clutter.

    To achieve what you want to do, insert the image of the phone into the Excel sheet.
    Next, create shapes from the drawing toolbar and position them over the phone "buttons". Create hyperlinks for each shape to the places in the workbook where you want to link to.
    Finally, format the shapes to have no fill and no border to make them invisible.

    Now, when you click a phone "button", you are actually clicking the shape with the hperlink.

    Would that work for you?

    I don't think you could get the iphone image to have interactive functionality, changing screens, dropdown menus, etc, though. That would require a more sophisticated graphics application that can produce rollovers like they are used on web sites.
