How to keep hyperlink in cells being accessed with IF function across workbooks?
Hi
You can use a HYPERLINK function which requires 2 arguments:
=HYPERLINK(link_location,friendly_name)
The First Argument (Link Location) should follow a pattern: Workbook Name, Worksheet Name, exclamation mark, Cell Reference
You can replace the workbook Name by a number sign if the Hyperlink is in the same file.
The Second Argument is a user friendly Name
I invite you to watch my tutorial in which I create such function by clicking on the link: (at 9:50 minute)

nabilmourad thanks, but I don't need a hyperlink to take me to the cell in the other sheet. I need a hyperlink that directly opens up the PDF in OneDrive. The reason is I will share this life insurance-only sheet with some people who will not be authorized to view the master sheet.
