My office poll conluded that this can't be done, but maybe some of you out
there are smarter than we are. Here is what I want to do:
From a web page I want to offer a hyperlink to a specific worksheet and
cell in an Excel spreadsheet. I don't want to convert the spreadsheet to
HTML and I am trying to avoid breaking it into multiple files. I know how
to write a reference IN Excel to a file/worksheet/cell location, but I
can't figure out how (or if) this can be done with a web link.
FWIW, we are using FrontPage with all extensions enabled. The link will
auto-launch Excel and display the spreadsheet.
If you have ideas, please advise ASAP.
Thanks.
