Hi
if you open the file you can replace INDIRECT.EXT with INDIRECT

Thanks alot

Yes it worked but i realised that reading 150 cells from 5 workbooks

(30
cells from each) do take a long time
But if i open them it was fast.
Maybe i should open them before i use this

normally INDIRECT would do. But as the other file is probably

closed
INDIRECT won't work.
See the following thread for alternatives

In your case INDIRECT.EXT should work. e.g.
=INDIRECT.EXT("'L:\[Franvaro1Av" & B5 & ".xls]Sammandrag'!$H$10")

Hello

If i read from another workbook lets say
='L:\[Franvaro1Av43.xls]Sammandrag'!$H$10

And like to change the number 43 in the link to 44
is it possible to link that part of the link to a cell
like if cell b5 has the value 44
='L:\[Franvaro1Av{b5}.xls]Sammandrag'!$H$10
