I have this formula that I wrote that creates a hyperlink using matched data. I'd like to add a friendly name that appears when I hover over the link but I'm not sure where it would go. Everywhere I try throws an error...

Excel Formula:
=IFERROR(HYPERLINK(INDEX(Subdivisions!J:J,MATCH(AP462,Subdivisions!C:C,0)),INDEX(Subdivisions!G:G,MATCH(AP462,Subdivisions!C:C,0))),"")
 

Excel Facts

Formula for Yesterday
Name Manager, New Name. Yesterday =TODAY()-1. OK. Then, use =YESTERDAY in any cell. Tomorrow could be =TODAY()+1.
You already have one, it's the 2nd index/match formula

What do you mean a "Screen tip"?

There is no option for that with the HYPERLINK function.

But surely that's the same as the friendly name?

It's this on my version:

I'm trying to customize it.

AFAIK you cannot customise it & as Rory has said, there isn't a "Screen tip" as such, just the mouse over.
