VBA Hide/Unhide Worksheets - Runtime Error

Hi all,
I have a workbook that's combining time off calendars for a couple departments with hyperlinks to hidden worksheets (months) for each department.

This is what I have written on the Navigation tab

Private Sub Worksheet_FollowHyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)
LinkTo = Target.SubAddress
WhereBang = InStr(1, LinkTo, "!")
If WhereBang > 0 Then
MySheet = Left(LinkTo, WhereBang - 1)
Worksheets(MySheet).Visible = True
Worksheets(MySheet).Select
MyAddr = Mid(LinkTo, WhereBang + 1)
Worksheets(MySheet).Range(MyAddr).Select
End If


End Sub


The macro works great for the first group of months, but when I click on say June/July/August or whatever in the second group of months, I get a Runtime Error 9 message and the line that is highlighted when I debug is:

Worksheets(MySheet).Visible = True


The second group of months are named "June (2)", "July (2)", etc. I thought that could that be my problem but when I tried renaming the second group of months but then nothing worked, not even the first group of hyperlinks.

Any help would be appreciated!!

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
Hi & welcome to MrExcel.
Try
Code:
MySheet = Replace(Left(LinkTo, WhereBang - 1), "'", "")

Solution
When you get the error have you checked that MySheet contains a value that's a valid sheet name in the active workbook?

Just replace this line
Code:
MySheet = Left(LinkTo, WhereBang - 1)
with my suggestion.
