I think the problem is that I haven't updated the file on my ftp site with
the latest version of pull. Here's the latest version.

'fixed InStrRev syntax. Now using XL2K+ syntax.
'-----------------------------------------------------------------
'2005-04-18
'added logic to check for date values from open workbooks, then
'adjust for 1904 date system in source workbooks
'-----------------------------------------------------------------
'2004-05-30
'still more fixes, this time to address apparent differences between
'XL8/97 and later versions. Specifically, fixed the InStrRev call,
'which is fubar in later versions and was using my own hacked version
'under XL8/97 which was using the wrong argument syntax. Also either
'XL8/97 didn't choke on CStr(pull) called when pull referred to an
'array while later versions do, or I never tested the 2004-03-25 fix
'against multiple cell references.
'-----------------------------------------------------------------
'2004-05-28
'fixed the previous fix - replaced all instances of 'expr' with
''xref' also now checking for initial single quote in xref, and if
'found advancing past it to get the full pathname [really dumb!]
'-----------------------------------------------------------------
'2004-03-25
'revised to check if filename in xref exists - if it does, proceed;
'otherwise, return a #REF! error immediately - this avoids Excel
'displaying dialogs when the referenced file doesn't exist
