I was customizing a letterboxing spreadsheet I have by adding hyperlinks. Everything went fine uitil I wanted to choose just 1 word in a cell instead of the whole cell. How do you hyperlink just 1 word in a cell in an Excel spread sheet? I searched the help area in Excel and couldn't find anything explaining how to do this. Mtn. Wizard

I searched the help area in Excel and couldn't find anything explaining how to do this.

To my knowledge, this simply isn't possible which is why you can find nothing on it. The coding within excel works on a cell level, not a text level, meaning that if you want a hyperlink, the first thing it needs is "A5" or whatever.

I was wondering if that was going to be the case. The whole cell or nothing at all. Thanks! Mtn. Wizard

Like Eidolon said, Excel just doesn't do cells with hyperlinks and other content together.

But, you can use Word to add that to Excel, outlined here. It takes some work to make it look like it belongs, so it may not be worth it. You'll probably be better off entering the text in a new cell.

I have cells that are hyperlinked BUT I can't hyperlink individual words in a specific cell. That is what I was trying to do. Thanks! Mtn. Wizard
