Hyperlink problems

[miggy999]

I have sheet containing a cell with a hyperlink in it pointing to
file. Lets call it cell A1. When I click A1, the file opens as you woul
expect.

Elsewhere on the same sheet, (A2) says "=A1".

A2 displays the contents of A1 as expected, but I would like the file t
open when I click A2. This does not happen as the hyperlink does no
"copy" across.

Can anyone help me please?

Thank you

You have to physically make A2 a hyperlink same as you did A1.
