In Cell Z1 'C:\Documents and Settings\Contracts\

In Cell G6 << I need to link to Cell D10 (with a dollor Value in

Z1 & B6 ' or 'C:\Documents and

Hi Jim,

You can use the INDIRECT function (check the online help) to build up your
reference, but it works only if the linked workbook (i.e.
PA0514121-A-JM.xls) is opened. If the linked workbook is closed the function
will give a #VALUE! error.

Hope I helped you.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Ciao
