Question

Can Excel interpret the URLs in my CSV as hyperlinks? If so, how?

Answer 1

You can actually do this and have Excel show a clickable link. Use this format in the CSV file:

=HYPERLINK("URL")

So the CSV would look like:

1,23.4,=HYPERLINK("http://www.google.com")

However, I'm trying to get some links with commas in them to work properly and it doesn't look like there's a way to escape them and still have Excel make the link clickable.

Does anyone know how?
