If you work with data in Microsoft Excel, you may find yourself needing to link to data on another sheet in the same workbook. This can be done using a simple shortcut. Here's how:
Sub LinkToAnotherSheet()
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Sheet1!A1"
End Sub
You can also use this shortcut to create links to other workbooks. Simply use the full path to the other workbook in the LinkToAnotherSheet macro. For example, if you want to link to a workbook named MyWorkbook.xlsx that is saved in the C:\Documents folder, you would use the following code:
Sub LinkToAnotherSheet()
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "='C:\Documents\MyWorkbook.xlsx'!A1"
End Sub
You can also use this shortcut to create links to cells in other worksheets. Simply use the cell address in the LinkToAnotherSheet macro. For example, if you want to link to cell A1 on a sheet named Data, you would use the following code:
Sub LinkToAnotherSheet()
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Data!A1"
End Sub
You can also use this shortcut to create links to cells in other workbooks. Simply use the full path to the other workbook and the cell address in the LinkToAnotherSheet macro. For example, if you want to link to cell A1 in a workbook named MyWorkbook.xlsx that is saved in the C:\Documents folder, you would use the following code:
Sub LinkToAnotherSheet()
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "='C:\Documents\MyWorkbook.xlsx'!A1"
End Sub
This shortcut can be a useful way to quickly link to data in other sheets or workbooks.
