TOC and link to Word

G

Guest

I have a TOC in excel that hyperlinks to various documents. This only
provides a broad link to the first page of the document... is there a way I
can link this to individual chapters and headings ??? similar to a toc index
in word ???

Maybe im missing something obvious .. any help would be appreciated

Many Thanks

Saved from a previous post:

So you want to add a hyperlink in an excel document that links to a certain
location in an MSWord file?

If I want a link in Excel that points at a specific location in an MSWord
document, I'd add a bookmark to that document and use one of these:

(Insert|hyperlink style)
C:\MY DOCUMENTS\WORD\MyDoc.DOC#bkmk01
Or
=hyperlink() style:
=hyperlink("C:\MY DOCUMENTS\WORD\MyDoc.DOC#bkmk01")

And with Dave's answer that solved your problem, hopefully you looked up
HYPERLINK Worksheet Formula in your HELP, so
the link would might look something like:
=hyperlink("C:\MY DOCUMENTS\WORD\MyDoc.DOC#bkmk01", "bookmarks")

If you also want to link Excel documents, see

Basically if you can create a link in an HTML document you should
have little problem creating a link in Excel or MS Word.

Thanks. This was very helpful but now I want to up the ante and place two
hyperlinks in one cell. Possible? Thanks again.

Hi,

There are programs for that, but Excel does not handle this. You could
attach a macro to the hyperlink and have the macro prompt you for with
hyperlink(s) to open.

If this helps, please click the Yes button

cheers,
