Editing recorded macro code. Referencing workbook name in functio
 

I created the following code using the macro recorder. What I need to do is
find a way to replace the workbook name reference in the function with some
generic reference that will always look in the open workbook -- no matter
what the user names it.

I think I know how to do it, in terms of creating variables to reference the
workbook -- but I don't know how the syntax works in a worksheet function
like this.

Range("A64").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"='[Functional Generic Estimating Model Loaded 1.1.xls]Summary
Data'!R[440]C20"

Hi Mark,

Not sure this will do exactly what you want, but you maybe able to play with
it and get what you want:
Sub Macro1()
Range("A64").Select
Z = ActiveWorkbook.Name
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"='[" & Z & "]SummaryData '!R[440]C20"
End Sub

In all honesty, that is what I think I need. I just needed to know the
syntax for referencing the variable in the worksheet function in the macro.
Thanks.
