Dear Sir!
I have a working hyperlink, but need a button instead because cells are being locked.
I have this fomula: =HYPERLINK(VLOOKUP(B2;Members!D3:J31;7;FALSE);"MAP") in cell E3. In the cell E3 it shows the word "MAP" as formula says.
B2 cell shows name of member picked from a combo box with a drop down menu of members.
"Members!D3:J31;7" refers to another sheet in the same workbook called "Members". Using Vlookup it finds the link to the home of the picked member. The link can be f.ex. like this ;https://www.google.no/maps/place/59%...!3m1!1s0x0:0x0
Each member have his own Google Map link in the sheet "Members".
So, when I click the word "MAP" in cell E3, it activates the link to Google Maps and opens Google Maps in the browser on the given coordinates in the link. Also after changing to another member. It all works well.
But, when other users are going to use this workbook, a number of cells will be locked to protect the formulas. The workbook containes many calculations about the same subject; time, speed, points and distances.
The cell E3 must also be locked to protect the formula from being deleted/changed by accident. But when the cell E3 is locked, clicking the word "MAP" of course does not work anymore.
The problem:
I would like to have a button looking like a Google Map ikon and does the same as when I click the word "MAP". So the user click the Google Map ikon and Google Maps opens in his browser on the given coordinates in the link above. This button/ikon will still be active/unlocked after cells are locked for protection.
How can this be done?? I would appreciate any help in this. Thank you.
