Hi everybody, I'm facing a problem in updating data in two separate workbook can anyone help me in this ?
I have 2 excel files one is Master file and other is the snapshot file. All the working are done in the master file and in the snapshot file all the different scenarios are show, in which values are to be entered. Now the problem being faced by me is that at any given point only the snapshot file will be open and the values would be entered into this file only, whereas the calculation are to be done in the master file. Since the master file is not open the values are not updated and the result of that particular inputs in the snapshot sheet is not available. The snapshot sheet updates only when i open the master file along the snapshot file. Can any one help me writing a macro which would update the closed master file and also reflect the results in the snapshot file. I have used the following macro but its somehow not working since the masterfile is different folder. Sub UpdateSelectedLinks() Dim aLinks Dim cLink As String Dim i As Integer Application.ScreenUpdating = False aLinks = ActiveWorkbook.LinkSources(xlExcelLinks) If Not IsEmpty(aLinks) Then For i = 1 To UBound(aLinks) cLink = Split(aLinks(i), "\")(UBound(Split(aLinks(i), "\"))) If cLink <> "book1.xls" Then Workbooks.Open aLinks(i) Workbooks(cLink).Close SaveChanges:=False End If Next i End If Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub Please help me in solving this problem. Thanks in advance. Abhishek Pradhan
