Value error on closed workbook links
I have a formula that links using SUMIF to other workbooks.
When I close the target workbook the formula returns The Value Error I have tried entering this as an array also and it doesn't work - any ideas? =SUMIF('S:\Finance\CFM\Actuals\Month\2006\1 January 2006\[FAL_Variance_Det_by_AC_v_BUD 170206.XLS]Output 1 (0303)'!$1:$65536,"Total Expenses",'S:\Finance\CFM\Actuals\Month\2006\1 January 2006\[FAL_Variance_Det_by_AC_v_BUD 170206.XLS]Output 1 (0303)'!$B:$B) |

Value error on closed workbook links
=sumif() doesn't work with closed workbooks.
You could write it as =sum(if(...)) (and enter as an array formula) But you can't use the whole column. And I'm confused about what range you're checking with: $1:$65536 =sumproduct() can work with closed workbooks, too: =sumproduct(--(thatlongstring...!$a$1:$a$9999="total expenses"), (thatlongstring...!$b$1:$b$9999)) Adjust the ranges to match--but you can't use whole columns. =sumproduct() likes to work with numbers. The -- stuff changes trues and falses to 1's and 0's. Bob Phillips explains =sumproduct() in much more detail he http://www.xldynamic.com/source/xld.SUMPRODUCT.html And J.E. McGimpsey has some notes at: http://mcgimpsey.com/excel/formulae/doubleneg.html Stuart wrote: I have a formula that links using SUMIF to other workbooks.
