Hi,

I'm using a list with names and e-mail adresses.
On another sheet i'd like to lookup the email adres based on the name.
I used VLOOKUP and HYPERLINK but because it was looking for a file I also had to add "mailto".

this formula works:

=IF(VLOOKUP(R1C3,totaal,43,0)="","",HYPERLINK(CONCATENATE("mailto:",VLOOKUP(R1C3,totaal,43,0))))

is there a way the find a working link with VLOOKUP without the "mailto"??
The result of the formula is something like "mailto: mrexcel@mrexcel.com"
i'd like a result like "mrexcel@mrexcel.com" and when clicked it should mail....

thanx for reading (and helping).....
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Hi,

The second argument of hyperlink allows you define the text, so simply define the e-mail address without the mailto: and it should work.

Code:
=HYPERLINK(CONCATENATE("mailto:",A1),A1)

Hope that's what your looking for.
