How do you hyperlink a cell to another cell in another workbook?

I just want it to hyperlink, not retreive the cell value or anything special.

Thanks,
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as currency
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+4 to format cells as currency. (Shift 4 is the $ sign).
This example creates a hyperlink to
To: cell C10
On: the sheet named MySheet
In: the file located at C:\MyFolder\MyFile.xls

With
A1: Click Me
B1: (the complete path to the file...eg C:\MyFolder\MyFile.xls)
C1: (the location in that file to link to...eg MySheet!C10)

This formula creates the hyperlink
D1: HYPERLINK(B1&"#"&C1,A1)
Note the hash mark (#) between the file path and the sheet name

Alternatively, you could use the Excel Main Menu
for all versions of Excel:
• Insert.Hyperlink
...Click: Existing File or Web Page
...Enter: Text to display, etc)
...Navigate to the file
To link to a specific sheet and cell
...Append a hash mark (#) and sheet and cell reference to the file name
Example: MyFile.xls#MySheet!C10
• Click [Finish]
When done: Just enter the text to be displayed in the hyperlink cell

Does that help?
