I need to insert a link into specific cell of an Excel worksheet to a
specific part of a word document. I have tried using Hypserlink - doesn't
work. I have tried using Copy, Paster Special as a link - doesn't work
either.

Why doesn't it work? What DOES occur? Did you Insert-->Bookmark into the Word
document, and then insert a hyperlink to the bookmark? (i.e.,
"C:\\mydocument.doc#mybookmark")

If I want a link in Excel that points at a specific location in an MSWord
document, I'd add a bookmark to that document and use one of these:

(Insert|hyperlink style)
C:\MY DOCUMENTS\WORD\MyDoc.DOC#bkmk01
Or
=hyperlink() style:
=hyperlink("C:\MY DOCUMENTS\WORD\MyDoc.DOC#bkmk01")

Still searching through the posts for something relevant to me but I'm
looking to have an Excel calendar, that when I click on a specific cell (i.e.
date) it opens an existing Word doc and inserts that date so I can begin
typing information for that date.

Thanks for the help,
Gary
