Yeah, it's probably one of the most popular/useful add-ins out there.

Thanks for the feedback!

Look for Morefunc.xll

This has a function called INDIRECT.EXT that will do what you want. See
the
add-in help on its use.

There is a way to do it the way you want with built-in functions *BUT*
the
referenced file *MUST* be open. This is usually a "deal breaker"!

There are a couple of other methods that might work on the closed file
but
these require VBA routines and one is an add-in. Still interested?

Hello,

I have the following formula (this is only a part of the formula) :

=SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH('S:\BTeams\Affinity\Affinity\Automotive Ops
Database\MTC Capture Tool 2\Fred''s Team\[MTC - Joe
Bloggs.xls]Mid-Term'!$B$3:$B$503)=12)

I have Joe Bloggs as a name in the formula and also in a cell.
Can i use the cell referrence, such as C6 instead of the name? Would
this
then referrence the external spreadsheet correctly or am i stuck
using
the
full name?
So it would read [MTC Tool - "Cell Ref".xls]

Thanks,
