Thank you in advance.

Use multiple cells instead of one to create the required array. See attached workbook.

I am bumping my head two days now, trying to find the solution.....

Thanks a lot it is working beautifully.

May I ask if you know how to make it work with an array?

That is using an array - it just gets it from a range.

Actually I am looking at how to structure an array so it can produce the required string
Array("'LINE 3.19'!R39C39:R200C40", "LINE 3.19"), Array("'LINE 3.18'!R39C39:R200C40"))

That won't work since Array is a VBA function.
