Sure. Go to cell A1 of the worksheet, and hit Insert-->Name-->Define and
give it a name; we'll use MyBook as an example.
Then, in Word, do the hyperlink to the file and add this to the end of the
hyperlink:

#MyBook

So, it'll be something like:
C:\Documents\MyFolder\MyExcelFilename.xls#MyBook

Anne,

Thanks, but I can't get that to work. I have a excel file that has 50 or so
tabs. I want to hyperlink from word to any one of those tabs. Doing it the
way you showed me just takes me back to the tab that I was on when the file
was last saved.

Thanks

I just tested it in Word/Excel 2000, and it worked perfectly for me. Does
your workbook possibly have any macros? Perhaps you didn't name the range
and the hyperlink text exactly the same?

to the owner and I'll try to get back to you.
