Just adding some input, If we have to hyperlink the cell from a sheet within same workbook, we don't have to write complete link as mentioned above, Let me suggest two easy options here;
- wherever you want to create a link, just type =HYPERLINK("#rangeid=sheet ID","sheet name"), writing Sheet Name here means that you want this name to be shown in the Cell
or - just right click on any cell, click on Insert Link, and click on the sheet where you want the link, it will work
