    Linking/Embedding Worksheet to Another Workbook

    Hi,
    I'm looking to link/embed a summary sheet from one work book to be displayed in another.
    When i update this summary sheet i wish for it to update the linked work book.

    Is anyone able to help with a guide or point me in the right direction?

    Thanks

    Not sure what formula you are using or just using =workbookcellreference?

    Re: Linking/Embedding Worksheet to Another Workbook

    I am unsure of what formula to use.
    I have tried the one above but haven't had any success. I need to link entire sheets within another workbook. Not sure if that helps?
    Thanks for your help though

    You can... but linking how many cells in each sheets is another question! And how many sheets? Just trying to show the data from the source or going to do calculation with the source?

    The work book will contain one sheet from another workbook. If possible i need all the information copied across, showing the data from the source.
    If when i come to update the original sheet would it be possible to set it up to automatically update the sheet copied across?

    Thanks for your help.
    The formula works but when testing it on a google drive system it doesn't update the main summary sheet.
    Oh well back to the drawing board.
