Link Word and Excel through hyperlink?

Hi;

I am trying to create a link in a Word table that will
take me to a specific cell on a spreadsheet. Does this
require programming??

I can set up a hyperlink easy enough, but it takes me to
A1 in the spreadsheet, and I can't figure out how to tell
it to go to cell "K33" for example.

Any help would be much appreciated. I thought I had
posted this last week but I can't find it.

Thanks!

1. Open the target spreadsheet and name the cell you want as your target.

2. In Word, insert the hyperlink to the spreadsheet as normal.

3. Press Alt-F9 to display field codes. Within the hyperlink field, add \l
"TargetName" (that's a lowercase L), so your field looks something like
this:

{ HYPERLINK "C:\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Query1.xls" \l
"CellName" }

In Word, how can I link to an Excel "Name", so that Word displays the value "named"?
