Linking to external files
I am trying to use and external link that is updated each week based on a
week numbered file as below =VLOOKUP(E3,'G:\Mike\In progress\Sameday Product Analysis\[Sameday Database 2010 Values Week 19.xls]Database'!$E:$BH,$M$3+2,FALSE) Is it possible to use a reference to another cell to change the week number. Ie if i use a formulae as below it will generate the current week number i report on. =WEEKNUM(TODAY())-2 The idea being is there a formatt to allow the 19 in the above formulae to be a refference to a cell and therefore will auto change the link or is this not a function of excel? |

Use edit replace or a defined name to identify the range
