Hi Fred,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  Are you referring to the hyperlink of the banking website in your excel sheet?
  
• 
  Which browser are you using to access the banking website?
  

If the issue is with Internet explorer, I suggest you connect to a secure website, Internet Explorer uses an encrypted channel that uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to encrypt transactions. Corrupted information in the SSL can cause
