    Re: How to use "indirect" search for information on other working folder.

    INDIRECT function does not work with other workbooks if they are closed. You will need the other workbook to be opened or you will need to install an addin from a free website and use a similar function called INDIRECT.EXT to replace INDIRECT.

    This is the formula if the workbook is open:

    =INDIRECT("'[D:\Documents - Projects\PROJECTS\IURI\Phase 2\Phase 2-1\"& A1 &". Xls]Folhas_92'!G13")

    you can get the free addin from here: Morefunc
    Where there is a will there are many ways.

    Tradução do português para inglês

    How can I access data in Excel from another worksheet based on local reference.

    I need only the value of each arquivo.xls G13
    I have three files with the following names.
    1112.xls
    1113.xls
    1114.xls

    I have the 4th folder that is trabalhho dados.xls

    Column A have the information you want to use as a reference within the formula to indicate the name of the file that contains the value I need.
    1112
    1113
    1114

    Example: = 'D: \ Documents - Projects \ Projects \ Phase 2 \ Phase 2-1 \ ["& A1 &". Xls.xls] Folhas_02'! $ G $ 13


    There are dozens of files, how can I get information on all of them.

    S/b, I think:

    =INDIRECT.EXT ("'D:\Documents - Projects\PROJECTS\ETELGE\Phase 2\Phase 2-1\["&A1&".Xls]Folhas_Vistoria'!G13")
