My target is to create a table with the first column linking to the summary figures on UCSC. The links are generated in batch by changing the corresponding coordinates. I want to output the strings of links in the table and automatically save them as clickable hyperlinks. Therefore, instead of writing the strings of links to csv or excel directly, we will need to add =HYPERLINK("*") around the string and output =HYPERLINK("https://genome.ucsc.edu.......submit") into the table to make the hyperlinks working.
