New to hyperlinking!!! Help!!!!

I have on sheet 1, over 100 locations/cells that need to be hyper linked to the same order form. How do I update the order form on the hyperlink without it updating the individual cells

i.e If I hyperlink the cells, to the same order form, it automatically updates all the others whereas we need to keep them individual. How can I create a hyperlink for each cell to have a hyperlink to the same order form but still remaining unlinked to each other

Please Help
Many Thanks
Louise

If I understand your question correctly,
opening and updating the page that contains
the form ( example form.htm )
will not alter any hyperlinks to form.htm

If you were to rename the "file" form.htm in FrontPage
folder view, ( example rename to form2.htm )
then FrontPage will automatically change all links
to form.htm to form2.htm

Your question is very confusing since it doesn't seem to
speak in the terms we understand.

For example: "How do I update the order form on the
hyperlink" does not make much sense as written. Do you
want to change what appears on the order form based on
the particular item the customer clicked on your listing
page? If so, you are talking about more of an ecommerce
type application that would require programming. Simple
hyperlinking will not meet your needs.

Further example, "How can I create a hyperlink for each
cell to have a hyperlink to the same order form but still
remaining unlinked to each other?". As I understand your
question, the hyperlinks on your listing page point to a
single Order form page and as you describe your two page
web, the other links on your listing page cannot point to
each other since they reside on the same page. They only
point to the single Order form page.

Let me take a bit of time to describe hyperlinks:

In its simpliest terms, a hyperlink is some text or a
graphic that when clicked will tell the browser to load
another web page. These are created by highlighting the
text or graphic on the page on which the hyperlink is
being created, clicking the right mouse button and
selecting Hyperlink. Use the resulting dialog box to
select the target page for this hyperlink (ie, the one
that the browser is to load).

If you decide to rename a web page when working in a
Front Page web, Front Page will readjust all of the
hyperlinks that reference that page automatically for you.

Perhaps this will help you to restate your question so
that we can assist you.
