Default new cell for each day

I am trying to use the date cell in one workbook to determine what cell of
another workbook that I pull. so if today is the 6 then it will pull cell
g12 in
another workbook.


=+'[Apr MIR.XLS]Mid-City'!INDIRECT("g"&$a$44+9))

Pls stay in your ORIGINAL thread. INDIRECT only works with OPEN workbooks.

=indirect("'[Apr MIR.XLS]Mid-City'!g"&$a$44+9))

or maybe...

=indirect("'[Apr MIR.XLS]Mid-City'!g"&day($a$44)+9))

(I'm not sure what's in A44.)

You don't need the +, either.

Format the cell as General (anything but text).

Then reenter the formula.
