Hi Dave,
Well the formula did help, however it is giving me reference error for
some dates.
I do have the file, when i open it, the value come up.
But as per your explaination for sum product its not working.
Please help.
The formula i am using is given below :
=sumproduct(--('c:\csat\july''06\[csat_daily_1.xls]csat_daily'!$v$1:$v$1000=\"vs\"))[/size]
Also one more question, is there a way to dynamically pull up the file
name ie. the reference file. In this case
C:\csat\July"06\[CSAT_Daily_1.xls]
then the worksheet name n then the range.
Do help me if possible.
Eagerly waiting for reply.

Notice that the last comma is now an equal sign.

Still returning #VALUE!.
The COUNTIF formula, that returned the correct data was as follows:
=COUNTIF('C:\[01.01.06.XLS]Sheet1'!$E$7:$G$27,$B10)
this showed the correct data [count of B10 entires] if either both
sheets
were open or you didn't update. using SUMPRODUCT I have written the
below:
=SUMPRODUCT(--('C:\[01.01.06.XLS]Sheet1'!$E$7:$G$27,$B10))
this still returns an error,
any thoughts?

You can replace your formula with =sumproduct().
=SUMproduct(--('C:\yourfolder\[book1.xls]Sheet1'!$A1:$A99=A3))
Adjust the range to match--but you can't use the whole column.
If you create the formula with the book1.xls workbook open, you may
find it
easier. Excel will adjust the formula when you close that
workbook.
=sumproduct() likes to work with numbers. The -- stuff changes
trues and falses
to 1's and 0's.
Bob Phillips explains =sumproduct() in much more detail he

And J.E. McGimpsey has some notes at:

There are some functions that don't work with closed
workbooks:
=indirect(), =sumif(), =countif()
are a few

I need the sheet to reference another file and update
accordingly. I have
entered the destination of the file required and cells to be
referenced etc.
This works fine if both files are open at the same time.
However, when I open the main file, it asks me if I want to
update, and I
have to choose yes as it is referencing daily reports over a
month, so I need
it to update automatically. When I choose yes, the fields
error and don't
populate correctly, even though the destination in the
formula is still
correct. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance
