The easiest way is to get Excel to do it.

Open both workbooks. In s/s 2, cell B5, hit the = key. Navigate to s/s1,
cell G5. Hit Enter. Excel will create the formula something to the effect
='[file name.xls]Sheetname'!G5

I want to have one spreadsheet update a specific cell in another
spreadsheet.
How do I do this?

Example:
Spreadsheet 1 cell G5 contains a balance
Spreadsheet 2 cell B5 wants that same balance
NOTE: The spreadsheets are not in the same workbook.
