Hi I tried multiple versions of this code to create a proper hyperlink to another sheet in the same workbook:
VBA Code:
lr = Sheets("PROJEKTY ZAKOŃCZONE").Cells(Rows.Count, "F").End(xlUp).Row
Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = ThisWorkbook
Dim adressn As String
adressn = "Godziny" + Left(ans2, 5)
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = wb.Worksheets(adressn)
Sheets("PROJEKTY ZAKOŃCZONE").Cells(lr + 1, "F").Hyperlinks.add Anchor:=Sheets("PROJEKTY ZAKOŃCZONE").Cells(lr + 1, "F"), Address:="", SubAddress:="ws", TextToDisplay:="Open"

The code works to a point where it shoudl assign address to go to
1643890054654.png


When u click the link all I get is:
1643890093290.png


I'm loosing my mind with this one
variable seen as ans2 is defined earlier in the code and works fine. In the picture u can see debug printed sheet name in cell F41 that is the exact name of the sheet I'm trying to go to.
Can anyone help?
 

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
The SubAddress needs a sheet name and a cell reference (e.g., "Godziny03026!A1"). Since adressn is the name, you don't need to use ws in the hyperlink. If you don't use ws later in the code (it was only for the hyperlink), you can get rid of it.

If A1 is not your preferred link cell, you can change it.
VBA Code:
lr = Sheets("PROJEKTY ZAKOŃCZONE").Cells(Rows.Count, "F").End(xlUp).Row
Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = ThisWorkbook
Dim adressn As String
adressn = "Godziny" + Left(ans2, 5)
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = wb.Worksheets(adressn)
Sheets("PROJEKTY ZAKOŃCZONE").Cells(lr + 1, "F").Hyperlinks.add Anchor:=Sheets("PROJEKTY ZAKOŃCZONE").Cells(lr + 1, "F"), Address:="", SubAddress:=adressn & "!A1", TextToDisplay:="Open"
