Problem:(H)is what I want to retreive using a formula to display from corresponding workbook like projectA,ProjectB,ProjectC in summary file.
ProjectA

OE Sales Hours 100 100 100

SUMMARY
=======================================
Years to read:
current: 2001 Note: these categories are the same as in the sheet "plan" in the project files, for resources
next: 2002 Note: per table, read indicated year only
Note : (H) stands for hours to be displayed
current:2001 OE Sales AD Sales Marketing hours -------------------------------------------- Project A (H) (H) (H)
Project B (H) (H) (H)
Project C (H) (H) (H)
-----------------------------------------
Total:
-----------------------------------------
Based on the year(here it is 2001 , it can range from 1998-2010 (these values are not to be changed) I should be able to display the following (if year is 2001, I should be able to open the workbooks (projectA, projectB, projectC) and read the values based on the year(here it is 2001) vs row values(like OE Sales,AD Sales,Marketing,Customer Eng) and display correspondingly on the "summary workbook".
