Depends on what you mean by change and what you want populated. The easiest
would be to go to the destination workbook and create a cell link back to
the workbook that is going be changed

="'C:\My Folder\[My File.xls]Sheet1!A1"

then the cell with this formula would update whenever the book containing
the formula is opened and you answer positively to update links (if asked).
