Default Problem with link cells between 2 spreadsheets

I have two separate spreadsheets containing various data. One is the Summary
spreadsheet and another one is the Detail spreadsheet. In the Summary
spreadsheet, I bring in the values of various cells from the Detail
spreadsheets using the following method. For an example, I bring in value of
cell D16 from the ExecSum tab in the Detail spreadsheet into the cell A10 in
the Summary spreadsheet, I will do the following

In Cell A10 of the Summary spreadsheet, it contains the following to bring
the value
='C:\$User\My Folder\Data\[Datail.xls]ExecSum'!$D$16

If cell D16 in the ExecSum tab of the Detail spreadsheet contains a value
"Hello". The work "Hello" will show up in Cell A10 of the Summary
spreadsheet.

What I found out a prpblem. As soon as I move both spreadsheets to other
folder or simply rename the "Data" folder to "My Data" for example. All of
my links DO NOT work anymore (not bringing any value) because it does not see
the spreadsheet.

Can someon please tell me how can I link the cells s.t. I can bring in the
cells from the Detail spreadsheet regardless where the files are located ?

Regards
