Default INDIRECT EXTERNAL DATA

I have the following statement in a parameter going against sql server
=indirect("Domestic!A"&row()) it works fine when I first put it in and
retrieve data.
The problem is when I save the spread sheet and then later open it back up.
The following message then occurs
"Coluld not obtain parameter from reference (Bad name or workbook not open).
Proceed to prompt for value?"

Is there another function that I need to use in a parm external situation
other than indirect? Thank YOu
