Cells(write_row + j, 7).Formula = "='" & source_sheet & "'!r[" & read_col
& "]c[" & read_row & "]"

Let's take a specific case. Say you're putting a formula in cell C3 and
that read_row is 2 and read_col is 1:

Cells(3, 3).Formula = "='" & source_sheet & "'!r[2]c[1]"

This says you want a cell 2 rows below C3 and 1 column to the right of C3
(aka D5) on the source sheet referenced.

What do you really want?
