2 workbooks
 

Hi, if I have 2 instance of excel open, and i want A1 in workbook1 to
= a1 in workbook 2, what do I put in the cell. Ive tried
=Workbooks("workbook2").Worksheet1.Range("a1"). I want to create a user
form and have the labels in workbook1 = certain cells in workbook2.
Both workbooks will be open toghether always.

Hi, got it to work with
='I:\MyDocuments\Settings\[trade.xls.sheet1]C'!$B$3. The problem Ive
got now is when the values change in trade.xls they dont update in
workbook1. Any Ideas. Thanks for your advice.
