=IF(B9="","",OFFSET('C:\Documents and Settings\Administartor\My
Documents\PURCHASE LEDGER BATCH LISTS\Warley\[SupplierCodes 2006.xls]AYRSHIRE WARLEY'!$A$1,MATCH(B9,'C:\Documents and Settings\Administartor\My Documents\PURCHASE LEDGER BATCH LISTS\Warley\[SupplierCodes 2006.xls]AYRSHIRE WARLEY'!$A$2:$A$500,0),1)) I am trying to link two workbooks using the formula above with cell B9 in the source book being variable. unless i open the linked workbook (which i would like to mainly leave closed) the result = VALUE. when i open the linked workbook i get the expected result. don't think i can use lookup because data within the linked book requires intermittently sorting. sorry for long explanation BUT - WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? |
