Linking different spreadsheets
Hi all,
I have several seperate spreadsheets all in the same format and I was wondering if it would be possible to create another to total up the contents of the current lot. Is this possible? It has to be a seperate spreadsheet to avoid unnecessary complication for other staff. Thanks Ian |
This file might be a help:
http://www.bygsoftware.com/examples/zipfiles/consol.zip It's in the "Accountants" section on page: http://www.bygsoftware.com/examples/examples.htm The "Bread-Roll" consolidation method - great for accountants. See how simple it is to consolidate any combination of your organisation's accounts.

hi,
not entire sure what you have in mind but yes. it involves putting the file path to the other file in the formula' If the other file has totals already you might use somthing like this.... =('S:\PUBLIC\Ae-pc\WOM\FY03\[WorkOrderMonitoring Jan.xls]MPX'!$A$4) this will bring the contents of a cell to your WB. if no totals in the other file, this might work.... =SUM('S:\PUBLIC\Ae-pc\OM\FY03\[WorkOrderMonitoring Jan.xls]MPX'!$Z$4:$Z$500) Careful. the last fomula wrapped. Good luck FSt1 "NoviceIan" wrote: Hi all, I have several seperate spreadsheets all in the same format and I was wondering if it would be possible to create another to total up the contents of the current lot.
