There we have added 4 to the result of MATCH. In the earlier section, we have used the MATCH function alongside the HYPERLINK function. You will find the destination has been changed, the hyperlink is working dynamically. Let’s change the actor name and click the link again. It will take you to the correct destination. In the Details sheet, the information is stored between the B5:B9 range, that’s why we have added 4 to the result of MATCH. And it returns the position from the Details sheet. Within the MATCH function, we have provided the selected actor name as lookup_value. The MATCH function returns the position of a lookup value in a range. Now we will generate the dynamic hyperlink, collaborating HYPERLINK and MATCH.

Let’s create a drop-down list for easing the selection of actors. We will choose the actor and depending on our selection the hyperlink will be modifying automatically. Hope we can overcome that issue in this section. You may not be convinced about the dynamicity of the hyperlink we have generated in the previous section, since we need to modify the references every time manually.
