What action will you take to create a hyperlink in a cell?

To create a hyperlink in a cell effectively, right-clicking the cell and choosing the Link option is the most straightforward method. This action opens a dialog box that allows you to enter the URL and give the link a specific display name. This approach is beneficial because it provides an organized way to manage your hyperlinks, ensuring they are formatted correctly and easily accessible.

While entering the URL directly into the cell could create a clickable link, it would not allow you to customize the text that displays in the cell, which could clutter your spreadsheet and lead to less clarity. Using the HYPERLINK function is another valid way to create links; however, it may be more complex for users who are unfamiliar with functions. Similarly, simply formatting the cell as text does not create a hyperlink at all, as it only treats input in that cell as plain text rather than an interactive link.
