Why Does Excel Have a HYPERLINK Function? Exploring Its Use for Department File Updates

ExcelHelp
Hi, some of us should be aware of the hyperlink feature in Excel. Microsoft has provided a separate function called HYPERLINK, similar to the SUM and AVERAGE functions. Why did they do so? There might be some thought process behind it, right? That's what we are digging into this week.

Scenario Overview

The scenario we have taken here involves three different department files where people need to update their department file by simply selecting their department from a dropdown and clicking on a link. Check out the attachments that illustrate how we solved this requirement using the HYPERLINK function. I hope this illustration gives you some ideas on how you can utilize the HYPERLINK function in your work.

Wish you a great week ahead.

Regards,
