        using(IXlCell cell = row.CreateCell()) {
            cell.Value = "Local link";
            cell.Formatting = XlCellFormatting.Hyperlink;
            XlHyperlink hyperlink = new XlHyperlink();
            hyperlink.Reference = new XlCellRange(new XlCellPosition(cell.ColumnIndex, cell.RowIndex));
            hyperlink.TargetUri = $"#'{targetSheet}'!{targetPosition.ToString()}";
            sheet.Hyperlinks.Add(hyperlink);
        }
    }

    // Create a hyperlink to a cell located in the external workbook.
