Have a formula that links other files to master file. Links must be updated
annually to look at new folder and file name within certain path. I'm not at liberty to shorten the folder or file names (company protocol). When I try to change the source under Edit -- Links, I get "Formula too long" error. This has not been the case in prior years. How can I get around this error? I have also tried Find/Replace to simply change the years, which would do the same as changing the source, but I still get "Formula too long" error. I need help on this one fast, as I have to provide worksheets to managers today! One formula is as follows: =+'Z:\Finance\Budget & Financials\Business Plan\2009\Operating Exp\[Oper Exp-Bis.xls]2009 Budget'!$I7+'Z:\Finance\Budget & Financials\Business Plan\2009\Operating Exp\[Oper Exp-Corp All.xls]2009 Budget'!$I7+'Z:\Finance\Budget & Financials\Business Plan\2009\Operating Exp\[Oper Exp-DM.xls]2009 Budget'!$I7+'Z:\Finance\Budget & Financials\Business Plan\2009\Operating Exp\[Oper Exp-FW.xls]2009 Budget'!$I7+'Z:\Finance\Budget & Financials\Business Plan\2009\Operating Exp\[Oper Exp-JC.xls]2009 Budget'!$I7+'Z:\Finance\Budget & Financials\Business Plan\2009\Operating Exp\[Oper Exp-LS.xls]2009 Budget'!$I7+'Z:\Finance\Budget & Financials\Business Plan\2009\Operating Exp\[Oper Exp-LW.xls]2009 Budget'!$I7+'Z:\Finance\Budget & Financials\Business Plan\2009\Operating Exp\[Oper Exp-MH.xls]2009 Budget'!$I7+'Z:\Finance\Budget & Financials\Business Plan\2009\Operating Exp\[Oper Exp-SJ.xls]2009 Budget'!$I7+'Z:\Finance\Budget & Financials\Business Plan\2009\Operating Exp\[Oper Exp-Top Total.xls]2009 Budget'!$I7 Thanks! -- Audrey G. |
