Default Refer cell value as part of formula

Hello!,
I have to consolidate data from various excel workbooks. Each workbook is
have name of employee for whom info is in worksheet. To summarise I wish to
creat a workbook. Normally, I can create link
='[vaijayanti.xls]Page 1'!$B$2. What I wish to do is replace
'[vaijayanti.xls]Page 1' with a cell reference $A$1 where I can type name of
employee to see data.

thanks in advance.
