I have defined a name label which contains a path to an external lookup
workbook.

If I put the path in each formula in each cell the formula looks like
this: INDEX('c:\directory to workbook\workbook.xls'!MYDEFINEDRANGE;10, 12)

I want to use it like this:
INDEX(NameLabelThatContainsThePathToWorkbook!MYDEFINEDRANGE;10, 12)

But this doesn't work. I'm using Excel 2002. Please help me.

Thank you...
 
Hi
not possible with Excel's build in functions. Have a look at:
