A hyperlink cell displays either text or an image that can serve as a hyperlink when clicked. The destination universal resource locator (URL), sometimes called the address, in the hyperlink can be any valid URL, such as www.yoursite.com or emailto:support@fpoint.com. For up-level browsers that support it, a text tip appears with the destination URL when the cursor pauses over the hyperlink cell. For down-level browsers, the status bar displays the URL when the cursor is over the link.
You can specify the target in which to display the destination, for example a new window (target = "_blank") or the same window (target= "_self").
To create a cell that acts like a hyperlink, follow the procedure described here.
For details on the properties and methods for this cell type, refer to the HyperLinkCellType class in the Assembly Reference.
This example sets the size of the cell (by column and row) so that the graphic fits in it, then defines the location of the graphic to use as a hyperlink button, then specifies the destination URL (and has it opening is a separate window).
