Hello, I have a file which will grab lots data from another file called data-source file, the data-source will change name depends on date and comments, e.g. DS-0507.xls or DS-0507 with comments.xls ..., since the file name is not consistent, I will have to change my formula every time.
Therefore, I want to get a macro which will allow a pop-up window to open the data-source file and macro will remember the file name, all the formulas will be re-built based on the file name which means the macro ill update the formula using the new data-source file name. Let me know if it's clear to you.
