assuming by exported data worksheet you mean an .xls file. Then created a
sheet level defined name and assign it the value (in you exported
worksheet). This is the same as you named range, but instead of refering to
a range, refer to a value.

If your exported worksheet will not be an xls file, then what will it be?

I'd like to store a value with an exported data worksheet, but I don't
want
to put the value in a cell. I just want the number to ride along with the
data worksheet, because I'm going to use the number later when I reimport
the
data worksheet back into the program. The number is a value that comes
from
a named range in the program that will export the data worksheet. Once I
export the data worksheet, the value that goes with it will not change.

How should I do this?
