auto hyperlink between many sheets?

G

I have a book with about 80 sheets(accounts), and I need to do 2
things:
1. hyperlink to each sheet by the sheet name. the name is also in hte
actual sheet

2. have a master sheet with info from each of the 80 sheets. this
will be about 3-4 entries for each account.

the info is from a form, and all of the needed entries are on the same
cells for each sheet. can I use some sort of formula to auto-populate
this info? if I can get the data from all 80 accounts on one sheet, I
can manually hyperlink them pretty easily. thoughts?

You already have the list of worksheet names in a column in that "index"
worksheet?

If yes, you could use an adjacent cell with a formula like:
=HYPERLINK("#"&CELL("address",INDIRECT("'"&A1&"'!a1")),"Click me")
(the worksheet name is in A1)

If you don't have a list of worksheet names, maybe you could use David
McRitchie's Build Table of Contents to get the list and the hyperlinks all at
once:

Another option if you want a more generic solution:
http://contextures.com/xlToolbar01.html
From Debra Dalgleish's site.

It builds a toolbar that you can use with any workbook to navigate to any
worksheet.
