Hello I have a list in excel and for each entry in the list I would like to create a new worksheet with a link from the original list. Is this possible and how may worksheets are possible?

Hope you can help!

Lewis

Not sure about what you meant by "create a new worksheet with a link from the original list". The number of sheets in a workbook depends on the amount of data and the version of excel that you are using.

Hi,

The end scenario I am looking for is say a list containing 50 cells. I would to be able to press on one of those cells i.e. "Mr Smith" and hyperlink to a worksheet called "Mr Smith".

Therefore, creating a type of contents page for the worksheets contained in the document.

I hope this makes sense.

Lewis.

Are you basically saying that if you click on "Mr. Smith", it should take you to the sheet "Mr Smith" ?

Hi,

Basically yes, but also that these worksheets are created from the original 'contents page' .

Is this possible?

Thanks.

Sorry still could not get my brains around creation part. What exactly you meant by created from original page. All i visualize is that you have clicked on a cell , and it takes you to sheet mr smith either existing or by creating one. I am sure I am missing some thing here

Hi,

Its a 2 part question really.

Firstly, and the main thing is I have is a list of 100+ error codes. I would like to create a worksheet for each of these error codes.

Secondly, from the list of 100+ error codes if a click on 1 cell it would take me to the created worksheet.

Thanks again.
