I have a worksheet (the MAIN worksheet) that is filled (using formulas) with values that originate in other worksheets (the CHILDREN worksheets). Each cell in the MAIN worksheet refers to a cell in one of the CHILDREN. Typically, I have 1 MAIN worksheet and 90 CHILDREN worksheets.
I would like to change the formula in each cell in the main worksheet to refer to a new set of children worksheets. For example, I might have a set of children worksheets in a folder called "DAY1" and I might want to replace DAY1 with DAY2 in all the formulas to link to a different set of children worksheets.
The problem is I have to open all the the children worksheets (90 of them) to update the cells in the MAIN worksheet. Then I have to close all 90 of the children worksheets. This takes a long time, considering I have many many files like this.
Does anyone have ideas how I can update cell formulas to worksheets that are not open?
