Simple Hyperlink problem that has me baffled

[excelcrooner]

I have a simple Hyperlink problem but have gone down soooo many Google Search 'Bunny Trails' without finding the exact solution trying various MATCH, etc. formula examples ;-(

In my single page spreadsheet (using Excel Starter 2010), I have:

LIST #1 - Multi-Column Data

LIST #2 - Multi-Column (Reference) Data which contains *some* of the LIST #1 data

Example of the quest:

In LIST #1, Column A, I have the (example) number 500 in a data cell. There is a matching 'number 500' in a data cell contained in LIST #2 data which is positioned BELOW List #1 starting on Excel ROW 100.

What I need to do is create a Hyperlink that when I click on the (example) number 500 in LIST #1, takes me to the line/row in LIST #2 with (example) number 500 - that also contains some additional data to be researched.

The DATA#'s in LIST #1 themselves need to be the clickable Hyperlinks.

NOTE:

1. I do NOT want to "LOOKUP" and/or "REPLACE" the contents in any LIST #1 or LIST #2 data cells !!!

2. Whatever the =HYPERLINK (blah blah) formula is the 'Magic Bullet', I need to create ALL of the LIST #1 Column A data cell Hyperlinks (which have different numbers) *separately* with a script outside of EXCEL that will be included in the importing (Opening) of a simple.txt file. And, for only the DATA# to display in the cell (the DATA#'s in LIST #1 themselves need to be the clickable Hyperlinks). Any references cannot be made to a specific Excel row number, only the cell DATA# (except there would be a Range of rows/cells for the LIST #2 data to be searched).

In a separate column, I'm doing something similar now with a simple URL to access WEB data like: http://www.exampleonly.com/db/DATA#. BUT... the entire URL displays, and does NOT work until I double-click on it a 2nd time and it turns into an underlined Hyperlink. Maybe it's because I'm using Excel Starter 2010, but I have not been able to find a way to reformat these 'Globally' so that ONLY the *short* different "DATA#" numbers appear in the cell. Editing/reformatting each entry manually via the Edit Hyperlink dialog box is not a workable option (hence, the frustration).

Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

Thank you.
