Macro to insert formula using cell reference/text - Urgent
 

I have a column in my master project list, column L that holds filenames of
all the project that are being worked on. E.g Column L row 2 =
\\Housing\project1.xls

It is possible to create a macro that will use this cell and the filename to
insert a formula in Colum M row 2 to reference to a named range on the sheet?

So Cell M2 ='\\Housing\project1.xls'!Aug08 once the macro has run?

Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

regards

You don't need a macro

="'"&L2&"'!Aug08"

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your quick response.

The problem is, I need this to actually bring back the result of what is in
the named range on the other spreadsheet, where as this just shows the file
name and the range.
