file path
 

Is it possible to get the name of a file path of a non active workbook using
a formula and vba?

file path
 

You changed questions???

dim wkbk1 as workbook
dim wkbk2 as workbook

set wkbk1 = workbooks("book1.xls")
set wkbk2 = workbooks("book2.xls")

wkbk1.activate
'now wkbk1 is active

msgbox wkbk2.name & wkbk2.fullname & wkbk2.path

I'm not sure what you mean by formula.

If you want a formula in book1.xls that returns the path of book2.xls, you could
put this in a cell:

=cell("filename",
then use the mouse to point at a cell in any sheet in book2.xls
and type a closing parenthesis ).
