Links to sheets

Product:

Application: Table Web version

You can create links to other sheets to make it easier to navigate through the document. For example, you can create a list on the first sheet with links to the other sheets of the document.

If a document is created in a third-party editor and contains links to a specific location (sheets, cells or ranges), such links will be active. However, it is not possible to create a new link or edit an existing link in such a document.
