This should be easy but I can't figure it out.
I want to run a formula with that references a cell in a separate file but part of the file name varies depending on input in a cell. For example the following formula works fine:
=IF(VLOOKUP($D5,'\\CONFILESRV\Dept\Construction\Development\Fee Info\Fee Summaries\[9418.xlsx]Fee Summary'!$B$8:$F$78,5,FALSE)<>0,"Done","NO ")
But if I want the file name 9148 to change depending on a value in cell A1 I tried the following and no luck
=IF(VLOOKUP($D5,'\\CONFILESRV\Dept\Construction\Development\Fee Info\Fee Summaries\[&A1&.xlsx]Fee Summary'!$B$8:$F$78,5,FALSE)<>0,"Done","NO ")
I can't figure out how to combine the two strings of text and the cell value. I've tried quotes, double quotes, and concatenate but no luck. Since the folder loation and worksheets will be the same I would like to put those in fixed cell locations too.
Any advice out there?
Thanks. I promise to add to your credentials!
