You can NOT use indirect with a closed workbook.

I am using the indirect function to reference cells in another Workbook.
I
would like the reference to the files without them being open. Is there a
way to do this?
I was told that it can be done by using the full file path in the
reference?
Is this true? How should it be entered?
