Default Put cell value from another workbook into a variable


I want my visual basic code to get the value of a cell in another
workbook and put into a variable. Here is an example that does not
work:

Fund1Shares = "'E:\Finance\[Fund.xls]Fund'!$B$3"

When I write the value of Fund1Shares to a message box I get
'E:\Finance\[Fund.xls]Fund'!$B$3 and the not the value in $B$3

Any help would be appreciated.
