OK I just figured it is something to do with TEXT, but cannot find
another function.

I tried:
=text(a1,) in B1. If A1 contained text, it showed up nicely. But if A1 was a number, I didn't see anything. So I'm guessing you have a number in that other cell. webels wrote: Hi I have the following function extracting data from a seperate workbook =TEXT([SurveillanceDup.xls]RDBMergeSheet!B2,) Data is extracted to the new workbook When I use =TEXT([SurveillanceDup.xls]RDBMergeSheet!A2,) No data is extracted There is data on Column A and B the SurveillanceDup.xls.
