Vlookup formula
 

Hello,

I'm using the following Vlookup formula:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A4,'S:\Operations\Bloomberg\Inves tment Support\Dummies2Live\2010\May 10\[04052010.xls]Sheet1'!$A$4:$F$600,6,0)),"PRINT",0)

This is linked to another spreadsheet - in this case 04052010.xls. Next day I will need to check file 05052010.xls and so on. To make life easier for my colleagues I wanted to add a cell with date where they can input the date and this will change the date in the formula (i.e. from 04052010 to 05052010) How can I link this formula to let's say cell A1 where I want to insert date every day.
Thanks

Vlookup formula
 

The closest thing to this would be to use the INDIRECT function, however...

INDIRECT can't be used with an external workbook reference. *sad face*
