This can be used to invoke an action or a macro
To create a hyperlink that just takes you to another part of the workbook
right click the cell, choose hyperlink
Select "place in the document" button on the left
In the "type the cell reference" add the cell you want to contain the link
This ensures that the selection doesn't change when the user presses the link.
This links the cell to itself
