I have an organization that wants each vendor to fill out and submit a
net present value worksheet as part of the RFP process. Call it the
NPV workbook. The organization wants to then pull data from each of
those worksheets into a summary worksheet.
I would like for the organization to be able to input the file path for
each NPV workbook. Then the summary cells would use the file path to
pull the data.
What I have been trying so far isn't working:
1) Organization creates a hyperlink to each NPV workbook; example: Cell
B8 contains the hyperlinked string: F:\Emergent\Projects\03109 GSA
SIS\SIS Model 2.xls
2) Use CONCATENATE function to create command; example:
=CONCATENATE(B8,"\[SIS Model 2.xls]Offeror Worksheet'!$E$14")
What I get on step 2 is a well-formed string:
='F:\Emergent\Projects\03109 GSA SIS\[SIS Model 2.xls]Offeror
Worksheet'!$E$14
How do I get that string to execute as a command, as if I had typed
that exact string into the cell myself, rather than using the
concatenate formula to create it?
