Hello

I hope some genius out there can help me.

I have a cell in sheet 1(call it the source cell), hyperlinked to a hidden sheet. The text in the source cell and Sheet Name are the same, so when i select the cell, the hidden sheet opens. Here is the VB routine i am using:


Private Sub Worksheet_FollowHyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)

Dim shtName As String
shtName = Target.Name

Sheets(shtName).Visible = xlSheetVisible
Sheets(shtName).Select
End Sub


I now have a dropdown menu in the source cell and I have to select different text depending on which sheet i want to access by the hyperlink. There is always a unique sheet for the different text options. I just can't get this to work.

Looking for help. please

Thanks
