So I have an Orion web report with lots of sections which export out to excel as sheets (tabs) which is great. But when exported and opened in Excel any formulas are just displayed as text until clicking in cell then the formula bar and pressing enter, which then creates the formula(in this case a hyperlink navigation).
This is the SQL query I am using for the content:
Select top 2
CASE WHEN ID = 1 THEN 'Groups and Templates' WHEN ID = 2 THEN 'Applications to Components' ELSE '' END AS [Table of Contents]
,'' AS [_]
,CASE WHEN ID = 1 THEN '=HYPERLINK("#Sheet2!A1","Sheet2")' WHEN ID = 2 THEN '=HYPERLINK("#Sheet3!A1","Sheet3")' ELSE '' END AS [Sheet]
From Orion.dbo.Modules
And this is what is seen when it first opens in excel:
And after selecting each cell and pressing enter in the formula bar I get the navigation cells I wanted:
Any thoughts on ways to have these calculate automatically? Can I enter other navigation functions or VB? It's so close....
Really I am just never happy.
