That is a really good idea i was looking to make it
entirely more complicated then I think i need to. Thanks
for your help

Can't tell how you are using this in code - so I'll just
guess and maybe
give
you a hint of how to use it

Dim mydate as String

mydate = InputBox("Enter new date","New Date")
' or
mydate = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1")

Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Formula = _
"=+'R:\INCAUDIT\[IJ" & mydate & ".XLS]REPORT'!$G$122"

[also - don't think you need the "+" after the "=".
looks like a carry over
from Lotus]

Here is the formula and perhaps i should have said
string
if VBA treats strings as an array of characters like
other
languages.

=+'R:\INCAUDIT\[IJ090103.XLS]REPORT'!$G$122

Every month I need to go in and change the source
spreadsheets name to the nexts months dates as they
follow
this format IJMMDDYY and it has become an unbearable
task
to change one number in this formula 527 times (17
Credit
card types X 31 days).

So I want to read the formula into an array and when the
macro is done this:

=+'R:\INCAUDIT\[IJ090103.XLS]REPORT'!$G$122

would become

=+'R:\INCAUDIT\[IJ100103.XLS]REPORT'!$G$122

I just dont know enough about working with arrays and
such
in Excel. The most i could figure out is how to get the
formula into a variable and back into the cell but
changing the formula is the hard part.

MC1 = Range("A2").Formula
" Code to change the formula. "
" I know the code will be wrong but"
" something along the lines of:"

TEMP[0] = MC1[19] "Grab the 19 char into temp VAR"
TEMP[1] = MC1[20] "Grab the 20 char into temp VAR"
REDIM TEMP = intager "Redefine the array as an integer"
TEMP = TEMP + 1 "Incriment the integer"
REDIM TEMP[2] "Redefine the inrager as an array"
MC1[19] = TEMP[0] "Drip the new number in the
formula"
MC1[20] = TEMP[1] "Drip the new number in the
formula"

Range("A2").Formula = MC1

Again any help would be appreciated.

Why are you reading a single cell/formula into an
Array.
If it is a formula
like =Sum(A1:B9) then what do you mean by increment
by
1 value. Do you
mean increase the range by one cell?
