concatenate
I want to combine three cells with 'Concatenate' function and get the result
like cell A1 = 10 (emp code) cell B1 = filename.xls cell C1 = sheet1'!A1 my coding is =concatenate(a1,b1,c1) --- it should show the content of cell A1 in 10filename.xls , since the A1 is changeable. rpmani |

Try the below. (Hope 10filename.xls is open)
=INDIRECT("'["&A1&B1&"]" & C1) -- Jacob (MVP - Excel) "rpmani" wrote: I want to combine three cells with 'Concatenate' function and get the result like cell A1 = 10 (emp code) cell B1 = filename.xls cell C1 = sheet1'!A1 my coding is =concatenate(a1,b1,c1) --- it should show the content of cell A1 in 10filename.xls , since the A1 is changeable. rpmani |

The function you'd want to use is =indirect().
But =indirect() won't work if the sending file is closed. Laurent Longre has an addin (morefunc.xll) at: http://xcell05.free.fr/ or http://xcell05.free.fr/morefunc/english/index.htm That includes =indirect.ext() that may help you. === If you have trouble getting to the site, then search google for indirect.ext. I found this alternative site: http://download.cnet.com/Morefunc/30...-10423159.html I didn't look to see if it was the most current version. I'd check the original site every so often to see if it's working. rpmani wrote: I want to combine three cells with 'Concatenate' function and get the result like cell A1 = 10 (emp code) cell B1 = filename.xls cell C1 = sheet1'!A1 my coding is =concatenate(a1,b1,c1) --- it should show the content of cell A1 in 10filename.xls , since the A1 is changeable. rpmani -- Dave Peterson |
