FAQ
What should I do if the HYPERLINK function shows an error?
- Check whether the function name is entered as
HYPERLINK. - Check whether the parameters, parentheses, quotation marks, and separators are complete and correct.

What should I do if the HYPERLINK result is not what I expected?
- Check whether the link address is correct.
- Check whether the display text parameter and the target address were mixed up.
- Open the function arguments dialog box again and review each field.
- If needed, test a simplified version of the formula in a blank cell first.
How can I use the HYPERLINK function in multiple cells?
