I've had to use INDIRECT.EXT to get data from closed workbooks. I don't
know how it would work for your application.

I am trying to do vlookup in a macro. Is there any way I can specify a
table from a sheet in a workbook that is not open for second argument
of vlookup?
For this format
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=VLOOKUP(RC4,[current_file.xls]overall!R2C1:R1000C15,4,FALSE)"
I have to have current_file.xls open
It gave me errors when I tried this
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=VLOOKUP(RC4,[E:\folder 1\folder
2\current_file.xls]overall!R2C1:R1000C15,4,FALSE)"
What is the correct syntax to specify this file in vlookup so that I
dont have to have that file open?
Thanks,
Jay
