Default Spreadsheet formula question

Spreadsheets are my Achilles heel, I swear...

So, I'm making an item spreadsheet for my Yahoo store. I have a field, CODE, in block C1, where I'll enter my item numbers. In H1, I have YPATH, which is the url of the item page so that it may be listed on Yahoo! Shopping. For the YPATH column, I'd like to have http:// www.redcherrycheesecake.com ( CODE column entry ).htm for each new row/CODE number...but how the heck do I program my spreadsheet to insert the number into the url automatically? Is there a way to do that, so I don't have to type 10001 in column C, and then have to cut/paste 10001 manually in column H1?

It would save a lot of time to just have it fill in the info by itself. Thanks for any help you can give. This is throwing me for a loop.

Hi,

This should work:

=HYPERLINK("http://www.redcherrycheesecake.com"&C1&".htm")

Then you can drag this formula down and it will put the codes in for you. I think you said you have the codes in column C...

Good luck!

No need for the HYPERLINK function as (I assume) the data will probably be imported from this file.

= "http://www.redcherrycheesecake.com/" & C1 & ".htm"
