Is there a switch to open a workbook to a specific page

[tmort]

I have a workbook which is a collection of related sheets. I'd like to keep them all together this way.
I'm putting together a html page which has links to other programs, web sites and this workbook.

In some cases where I link to this workbook I'd like each link to go to a different page withing this workbook. I'm thinking there might be some sort of switch where I could specify the page (and mayber even the active cell).

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks

look at hyperlink

You can specify file, sheet, and cell.

See Function and VBA

I see the hypelink function but I don't see the syntax to specify the page or cell address.

I could always link to the workbook just not a specific page and address

see Excel's Help on Hyperlink function

VBA that uses hyperlink

Sub Hyper()
' Dave Patton August 4, 2002
' creates hyperlink with info in Columns C and D
' the "a" is put into the Activecell so full text of Hyperlink does not show

Dim i As Integer
Dim cRow As Long
Dim sHyper1 As String
Dim sHyper2 As String
With ActiveCell
ActiveCell.Formula = "a"
sHyper1 = .Offset(0, -2).Value
sHyper1 = "E:Data02Tech02" & sHyper1 & ".xls"
sHyper2 = .Offset(0, -1).Value
sHyper2 = sHyper2 & "!A1"
.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=ActiveCell, Address:=sHyper1, SubAddress:=sHyper2
End With
End Sub



Hope part of this is of some interest.

You can utilise HTML's anchoring and Excel's named ranges to do this also if you want....

make cell A1 on each page a named range (insert, names, define)

then in your HTML, just anchor it in the HTML hyperlink tag :

link 1

link 2

link 3

link 4

et cetera, et cetera
