Default Excel Formula from one workbook/worksheet to another

I have entered formula
=('L:\Quality Improvement Projects\2008\[2008 Advanced Directive
Monitor.xls]Summary by Provider'!c10)

It does not bring the information from worksheet Summary by Provider to the
new worksheet. It just displays the formula in the cell. What am I doing
wrong.

The cell is probably formatted as text.
Format as General and re-enter the formula (F2, ENTER)
