    Post Using VLOOKUP with dynamic filepath for table array

    the table array for my vlookup data is based on an external workbook. The filepath of the workbook will change each month. Is there a way to have the table array change to reflect the current month?

    This is the formula that works for September:

    =VLOOKUP(A12,'[2014-09Data.xlsx]Report'!$A$4:$G$19,3,FALSE)

    I would like the table array filepath to change to the following in October:

    =VLOOKUP(A12,'[2014-10Data.xlsx]Report'!$A$4:$G$19,3,FALSE)

    Re: Using VLOOKUP with dynamic filepath for table array

    You could try putting the possible directory names into a data validation list, and have the formula point to that cell for the directory

    I have no idea if that would work.
