    How to link one table to the contents of a table in another workbook file? (Excel 2010)

    In 2013, it is very easy to copy data from one workbook to another and Paste As Link.

    But how do I do link one table to the contents of a table in another workbook file? (Excel 2010)

    SO If I understand you right, you just need to have some values from one workbook to be visible on another workbook, so If the Values from 1st workbook are changed the second workbook should update.

    Is this right?
    Cheers!

    Yes.

    And if possible, when the table becomes larger on the source workbook, it dynamically becomes larger in the linked workbook.

    Check this out - Probably this is what you want. I am not pretty sure if this works with the 2010 Version too.. -

    http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/ex...103791160.aspx

    It is very easy to understand. Let me know if you face any issues..

    Else we will have to use VBA, or another option is to have Formulas dragged down till the maximum possible table length.

    Hope it helps!

    Hello!
    Can you show a examble? If I understand correctly your opinion, i am using add-in a-tools to link all workbook in excel.
    At the same time, i can retrieve data in SQL, MYSQL, ORACLE, ACCESS to excel and do reports in excel by SQL language.
    About excel online, add-in a-tools can help you to share excel in LAN or Internet, assigns permissions to all members in LAN.
    Can you post a examble and i will do it?
    I hope it will help you.
    Thanks

    I can't post an example because I don't know how to do it.

    I want Table2 in Book2 to be linked to Table1 in Book1, and show the contents of Table1. The Table size changes, so hopefully there is a way to make it dynamic.

    I basically want Table2 to mirror Table1, but they're in seperate workbooks.
