What's this got to do with c#? You don't show any code. It's "your idea".

Seems you're exporting data as a text from a datatable to an Excel sheet...

All you need to do is to add hyperlinks to cell, see: Hyperlinks.Add(Object, String, Object, Object, Object) Method (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel) | Microsoft Docs[^]

C#

//Define a range object(A1).
Excel.Range _range;
_range = objSheet.get_Range("A1", "A1");
//Add a hyperlink to it.
objSheet.Hyperlinks.Add(_range, "http://www.example.com/", Type.Missing, "Click to visit 'example.com' site", "Exaample site!");
