Excel hyperlink for telnet session

[dnelson24]

If I have an IP address in a cell in an excel sheet, is there a way for me to create a hyperlink that would open this IP host in a telnet session? Say using just MS built in telnet.exe?
Thanks
David

The Hyperlink URL should be:
telnet://yourHostName

Hope This Helps, PH.

Works, so how can I get rid of the "hyperlinks are harmful" pop-ups?

Thanks
