You can use the HYPERLINK function, and craft the link inside. For example,
if 20060430 is on cell A1, using:
=HYPERLINK("http://us.com/reports/production/myfile_" & A1 & ".xls")
will produce a link to that file.
If you always need the link for the current day, you may even use this one,
without the need of an additional cell:
=HYPERLINK("http://us.com/reports/production/myfile_" & YEAR(TODAY()) &
TEXT(MONTH(TODAY()),"00") & TEXT(DAY(TODAY()),"00") & ".xls")

Hope this helps,
Miguel.

I need to link to in excel file on my office intranet. The filename changes
daily when reports are run but I haven't figured out how to link to it.

http://us.com/reports/production/myfile_20060430.xls

This is the only file in that folder with that name, so if I can get excel
to ignore the date on the end, I would be fine.

All assistance is greatly appreciated.
