Hi there,
I've been scanning the web for a way to access information from an external Excel document and use it in another workbook for analysis, but haven't found a way to do what I want. Basically, I want to pull in specific columns from an external sheet, which have a variable number of rows, which may change (so I don't know the end of the range). I've looked into "Get External Data", but it appears I can only import a whole sheet as a table. But I do not want to pull the entire external sheet because it's huge. Rather, I would like to select only specific columns from the sheet, which I can then 'Refresh' to update as the source sheet changes. Possible?
UPDATE!:
I forgot to mention that am also wanting to pull other columns from other sheets and/or workbooks...
I'm running Excel 2010.
Thank you in advance!
Regards,
Chris
