create defined name using variable file name in reference
Hi there.
You may want to try: Refers to: =''" & CELL("filename") & "sheet'1!$K$8:$K$10000 This name will be a valid name only after the workbook has been saved.

Just in time (I did not read your post that carefully ...)
You can use the following formula to get the name from another cell: Refers to: ="'E:\Data Folder\[" & U2 & "]sheet1'!$K$8:$K$10000) Regards, Otávio "Otávio Alves Ribeiro" wrote: Hi there.
