Hi! I'm creating a hyperlink to make it easier to navigate the spreadsheet. With the active cell, I want to hyperlink this to a cell in the 8th row with the same value as the active cell.

Can someone explain to me why this doesn''t work:

Sub FindSelection()
Dim rngFound As Range
wsn = ActiveSheet.Name

With Range(Cells(8, 1), Cells(8, Columns.Count))
Set rngFound = .Find(What:=ActiveCell.Value, LookAt:=xlPart, LookIn:=xlValues, SearchDirection:=xlNext, After:=.Cells(.Cells.Count), MatchCase:=False)

ActiveCell.Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:= _
"'" & wsn & "'" & "rngFound", TextToDisplay:=ActiveCell.Value

End With

End Sub



The "rngFound" before 'texttodisplay' is what doesn't work.

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN
Hi, welcome to the forum!

Try altering the ActiveSHeet.Hyperlinks... line to:

Code:
 ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:= _
 "'" & wsn & "'!" & rngFound.Address, TextToDisplay:=ActiveCell.Value

Try this instead:

Code:
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:="'" & wsn & "'!" & rngFound.Address, TextToDisplay:=ActiveCell.Value
