I've looked around to try and resolve this, however I am unfamiliar with the coding.
Here's my line of code,
='[WorkBook]BOM'!G6
What I want to do is make the Workbook call to a cell so I can mass replace all the 'Workbook' names without Find and Replace.
Essentially, something like this (Though this code does not work, it is just for reference)
='[=E1]BOM'!G6
Then in cell E1, I would be able to enter any text I want, to replace the Workbooks name. I'm trying to find the Formula to do this.
I tried implementing this code into my excel sheet, as did one of my co-workers into theirs. Neither of us received results, as we both came up with #REF!
The WorkBook I'm referencing is open as well. Thanks for the fast response, however. – Paul – 2013-12-05T22:03:25.790
As noted, this might be because the workbook you are referencing to are closed. This is the closest you would come such a solution without using VBA. – Netloh – 2013-12-05T22:35:12.460
What does "Evaluate Formula" tell you? – Scott – 2013-12-06T03:20:27.977
note also that it will expect the full name -
workbook
would not work, you would have to putworkbook.xlsx
- If the file is closed, you would need the full pathname:C:\Users\MyName\Documents\workbook.xlsx
