Formula Pulling Data from Another Spreadsheet

This issues has been causing me grief for two days now!

I have the following array formula:

Code:
{=IFERROR(IF(ROWS('Endorsement Library'!$6:6)<=COUNTA(EndIA),INDEX(End,SMALL(IF(EndIA<>"",ROW(End)-MIN(ROW(End))+1),ROWS('Endorsement Library'!$6:6))),""),"")}

I use it to pull selected data from one worksheet to another. It works great.

I have now created a second spreadsheet and have typed the formula out again from scratch to use again and nothing happens on the second spreadsheet. I have every worksheet named exactly the same and the data is in the same cells. So instead of typing out the formula I tried to copy and paste but now the formula just links back to the old spreadsheet, even if I delete the reference before 'Endorsement Library'.

If anyone can help, I'm sure you will want more information. I'm just stumped, I've tried everything I can think of.

As soon as I paste the formula the 'Edit Links' button is enabled. But I can't see why the formula is still referencing the old spreadsheet. It copies in exactly as above with no reference to the old sheet.

I'm using the latest Office 365 Business.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
Rather than copy/paste the cell, copy the formula in the formula & then paste to the new workbook.

Copying from the formula bar works for me without any links.
Maybe it's something that has changed since 2013

I can't understand how this works in one spreadsheet but not another. Does anyone know a different way of achieving the same result?
