    Hi, welcome to the forum

    yes, that is pretty simple - if you just want to reference a specific cell...
    ='[your-other-file-name.xlss]sheet-name'!$A$34

    If you need to search for data, that can also be done, but is a bit more involved
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Hi therre,

    here you can find a way to connect two excel files:

    In the Workbook Connections dialog box, click Add.

    Near the bottom of the Existing Connections dialog box, click Browse for More.

    Find your workbook, and click Open.

    In the Select Table dialog box, select a table (worksheet), and click OK.

    Trustee, I hardly see how that is simpler than just a straight-forward = function?
