I have a worksheet that gets it's data from an outside program. When I
refresh the spreadsheet, if a new product is added, it gets inserted
alphabetically, moving all of the other cells (rows) down. My worksheets
that
reference the cells now have the wrong data as the information has moved.
Is
there a way I can reference that specific data even if it moves to a
different cell when I refresh?
