Hello community,
I am stumping over a problem this afternoon. I have the following formula in my Sub:

Code: 
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
        "=GETPIVOTDATA(""Hours"",'[TestClient.xls]Pivot Table'!R3C1,""Department"",""Client Services"")"

I would like to be able to replace TestClient with a string variable. I have tried using an indirect function with no luck. I also tried concatenating it, but no luck either.

Any thoughts?

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
