Default Using ISTEXT across separate Spreadsheets


Hi there,

I've got a customer with a single spreadsheet, which uses the ISTEXT
function to query lots of other spreadsheets. This appears to be
failing, and I can't figure out why.

The spreadsheets being queried are protected, (protected worksheet and
workbook), but other cells in these spreadsheets CAN be queried using
the ISTEXT function...it's just some specific cells which can't be
queried. The failing cells don't appear to be different to any of the
other ones.

The failing ISTEXT function produces a "#N/A" error, but the help isn't
helpful at all.

Has anyone seen this before, and knows what the problem might be
please?

Thanks,
Tim.
