I have a spreadsheet in which I'd like to pull in data from a few hundred other spreadsheets like as follows, and I have probably 150 data points in each spreadsheet:
Cell I1 =[0001.xlsx]Aggregation!$I$9
Cell I3 =[0002.xlsx]Aggregation!$I$9
Cell I5 =[0003.xlsx]Aggregation!$I$9
...
Cell I500 =[0250.xlsx]Aggregation!$I$9
with ~150 cells per row concluding in:
Cell JA1 =[0001.xlsx]Aggregation!$JA$9
Cell JA3 =[0002.xlsx]Aggregation!$JA$9
Cell JA5 =[0003.xlsx]Aggregation!$JA$9
...
Cell JA500 =[0250.xlsx]Aggregation!$JA$9
Since the files are closed normally, I can't use the INDIRECT function to assemble the formula on command (but it works for open files). I have a cell in each row in which I'm pulling data in that has a numeric value for that data (i.e. 1,2,3...250 as above).
I cannot seem to come up with a good way to get these rows of data created short of manually finding and replacing the part of the file name. Can someone help me with an idea of how to do this more quickly? Thanks!
