Benny cannot figure otu the solution

Linking Spreadsheets
 
I have a spreadsheet with several workbooks that I need to link to a
different spreadsheet with its own workbooks. I know I can build a llink
between the two spreadsheets and share information across them. However, I
need the ability change the location of the spreadsheet and the name of the
workbook within the spreadsheet. I can build the string with the drive
letter, path, file name, worksheet name and cell, but I cannot see how to get
Excel to use that to pull in the information I need.

I need this for two reason. The first is that I'd like to be able to move
them to different folders and even drive letters with only a mimum of change.
The second reason is that I change the names of the workbooks based on the
content of the data but the workbook content does not change.

Any suggestions?
