Is there anyone out there who knows if it's possible to get the same functionality in Excel as in Word concerning hyperlinks, i.e. that you have to press CTRL to activate the link? I find it really disturbing that one always opens the link if you just want to edit the cell with the link. Don't you agree?

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
If you want to edit the link, put your mouse on it and hold the left button down for a couple of seconds until the 'hand' changes to a cross, release the button and edit the link.

Hi,

No, I don't have a problem to edit the link. I just don't want to automaticly activate the link every time I click on the cell. I would like to have the same functionality as in Word, that you should press CTRL to activate the link.
