Matching data from seperate excel files
 

I need to match data from 2 seperate excel spreadsheets.
Where the same data (ie a reference number) appears in the 2 spreadsheets, I
want the reference number and other data such as invoice number and date to
be pasted to the first file in the same row as where the reference number
appears in the first file.

Hi


Something like
='C:\My Documents\My Excel Files\[My Source Workbook.xls]SourceSheet'!A2
or
=IF('C:\My Documents\My Excel Files\[My Source
Workbook.xls]SourceSheet'!A2="","",'C:\My Documents\My Excel Files\[My
Source Workbook.xls]SourceSheet'!A2)
