I can reproduce the effect with an own sample document "mytest2.ods" and "LibreOffice 3.3.2RC1  – WIN7  Home Premium  (64bit) German UI [OOO330m19 (Build:201 / tag 3.3.2.1)]". After having saved document as EXCEL 97, all hyperlinks in buttons will be lost. 

In control field I see hyperlinks are missing, and they are greyed out, no new hyperlink can be created.

May be that behavior is intended because EXCEL does not support buttons with hyperlinks? I can't tell

Sample, see Comment 1

Save as .XLS (97), close and reopen, then you should see missing hyperlinks in Sheet3.

Taking this one
Comment 4 Owen Genat (retired) 2013-05-20 05:59:32 UTC
I have tested the provided file from comment #2 under MacOS 10.6.8 and Ubuntu 10.04 x86_64, both running v4.0.3.3 (Build ID: 0eaa50a932c8f2199a615e1eb30f7ac74279539). The problem as described in the attachment to the original description still exists. Basically, if the Insert > Hyperlink option is used to create a link with a Form of "Button" it will not survive being saved as XLS. Whether CTRL+click, SHIFT+click, CMD+click, or simply clicking on the button, the link remains inactive. Tests with newly created files (under v4.0.3.3) reveal identical behaviour.

confirmed reproducible on LO 3.6.6 (Ubuntu 12.04 32bit) & LO 4.0.3 (Win7 32bit)

save as .xlsx generates different behavior: buttons removed, links removed or exist

Still reproducable on Ubuntu 13.10 x64, LibreOffice Version: 4.2.0.1
Build ID: 420m0(Build:1)


Also saving to xlsx is disaster :(

I've got the same problem.
Solved using the =HIPERLINK() function.
More details how to use this function, see https://help.libreoffice.org/Calc/Spreadsheet_Functions#HYPERLINK
