Default Updating of Downloaded Spreadsheet

Take a look at the INDIRECT function, it should give you what you
want.

| I regulary download a spreadsheet which has a filename format of

|
| For example SurveyData_290905_1105.xls
|
| Each downloaded file has identical column structure but a variable
number of
| rows.
|
| I have another spreadsheet analysis.xls that does all the
calculations.
|
| I'm trying to work out the best way of being able to download the
latest

without having
