Activate a sheet on double click of a cell

Hello everyone (sorry for the accents but I have a QWERTY keyboard...),

I would like to open a sheet in my Excel file by double-clicking on a cell.

The goal would be to have text-containing cells on the first page, and when double-clicking on a cell, it would open the page with the same name. I've managed to achieve this more or less, but in a very rudimentary and non-evolving way.

Here's an example:

Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)

If Target.Value = ("A") Then
Sheets("A").Activate
End If

If Target.Value = ("B") Then
Sheets("B").Activate
End If

If Target.Value = ("C") Then
Sheets("C").Activate
End If

If Target.Value = ("D") Then
Sheets("D").Activate
End If

End Sub

I tried to create loops, declare variables, but nothing works, this is the only thing that functions for now.

Additionally, this file will be evolving, so if we need to add something, we fill in a new cell, create the sheet with the same name, and have the link established automatically.

I hope I have been clear, do not hesitate to ask if you need more information.

Thank you in advance.

    Hello,

    Try with
    Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
    Dim Ws As Worksheet
    For Each Ws In Worksheets
    If Ws.Name = Target.Value Then
    Sheets(Target.Value).Activate
    Exit For
    End If
    Next Ws
    End Sub

    Cheers

    Hello

    You have the hyperlinks that do this without using VBA
    Otherwise, try this (for a double click in the range B2:B5)

    Const range = "B2:B5"

    Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
    If Not Intersect(Target, Range(range)) Is Nothing Then
    Sheets(Target.Value).Select
    End If
    End Sub

    Best regards
