Data from Worksheet to Worksheet
Hi, I'm desperately searching for a way and was wondering if it was
possible to take data from one worksheet and utilize it in another one. If so, is there a macro or is there a simpler way to do it or even if there is a macro, what could it be to get it to function, I'm not even a beginner at programming as I am fairly new to it so I need a little bit of help. |

You could just create a data connection to the worksheet that has the data you want to access. I'd put the data connection on its own sheet in your workbook. Not sure what version of Excel you're using, but using Excel 2007 just click the Data menu option and create the connection using "From Microsoft Query". You would tell it to use Excel as the data source and then follow the wizard. Depending on what you're trying to do, it might be easier just to reference cells in the other workbook. The easiest way to see how to do that is to have both workbooks open and then enter "=" in one spreadsheet, then click on a cell in the other. You should end up with something like "=[workbook1.xs]Sheet1!$A$1". |

Appreciate the help Ferris, I'm utilizing Excel 2003 and tried your formula, but it comes up with the answer #REF and a load/open box telling me to update values comes up. |

For example, I want to put the equation =IF(A2<=0,"0",=PRODUCT([YearlySummary.xls]Lookup!$B$3) times 8. Is it possible that you can translate the equation to excel language? |
