Insert cell value from another workbook based on defined reference

[Fazniro]

Hi all,

I have to consolidate sales targets from multiple countries and they have all submitted/sent me their files.

The excel files they send me all look exactly the same in terms of where the numbers i need to fetch is located.
For example, worksheet named "Summary" cell A1 and cell B8.

Then i have a master file, where i have something like this:

[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]File Name[/TD]
[TD]Unit forecast Product1[/TD]
[TD]Unit forecast Product2[/TD]
[TD]Unit forecast Product3[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]United States[/TD]
[TD]US.xlsx[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]France[/TD]
[TD]FR.xlsx[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Germany[/TD]
[TD]GER.xlsx[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]cell reference:[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]A1[/TD]
[TD]B8[/TD]
[TD]AB25[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Sheet name:[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]Summary[/TD]
[TD]Summary[/TD]
[TD]Objectives[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

I would like to tell excel: find me the cell value in file named "US.xlsx" in sheet named "Summary" in the cell that i specify here below. Thereby, i mean i specify the cell reference in the master file (as the above table display), because then i can just copy/drag the formula to the right and excel will look in the correct file, correct sheet and correct cell based on input given from the master file.

Can it be done?


best regards
