I need to link to several slightl;y differing workbooks
Using Indirect I can pick up the data where the cells are fixed. However, some data moves around (insert rows) & I want to link to a named range How do I convert the simple link - ='proj1 package.xls'!project (project is name) to an indirect formula This one give #REF error =INDIRECT(CHAR(39)&"["&$A10&"]" &CHAR(39) &"!"&"project") What am I missing? A10 references the workbook name which the user types in |
