It's easier if you open the other workbook first and use the mouse to select

=VLOOKUP(D1,[myfile.xls]Sheet1!$1:$65536,3,0)

then excel will add the necessary path when you close the workbook

=VLOOKUP(D1,'C:\Documents and Settings\My Name\My
Documents\[myfile.xls]Sheet1'!$1:$65536,3,0)

otherwise you have to build the path yourself

Is it possible to refrence an entire worksheet from another workbook
(which is unopened) so that I can use its cells for a Vlookup?

Thanks
