How to create a link inside a cell using EPPlus

Question

I am trying to figure out how to write a Hyperlink inside a cell using EPPlus instead of the cell containing the link text. I need it to be recognized as a link and be clickable

Answer 1

I don't know EPPlus, but in VBA (and I guess C# would use the same principle) you would use the following code:

Sub Test()

    ' place value into cell
    ActiveSheet.[A1] = 13

    ' create link and set its range property
    ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add ActiveSheet.[A1], "http://www.google.at"

    ' use cell in a calculation
    ActiveSheet.[A2].Formula = "=A1+2"

End Sub

Hyperlinks are objects having a range property, so while your cell value can be changed by overtyping, the link will remain. Edit the cell by a long mouse click

Hope this helps - good luck MikeD
