The syntax error is probably because of the: wrkbk& you need a space:wrkbk & In 
technical terms:In programming, the "&" is called the "address of" 
operator.following a variable with a & means the "addres of" the variable,not 
the variable itself. It's pretty convoluted, and deals primarily with "memory 
management". for your purposes, it just means you need a space. " & wrkbk & "

Hi All,I have two files: File1 and File2.

 

I need to apply Vlookup in File1 using references from
File2.

I have stored name of File2 in a string wrkbk and need to apply vlookup using 
this.

 

Recording Macro gives:

 

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _

       
"=VLOOKUP(RC[-3],'[ForecastLastUpdated_18
July 2014 15.45.xlsx]Sheet1'!C1:C8,8,0)"

 

I want to replace the file name marked in Red with wrkbk.Thanks in advance.
Regards.Yours Sincerely,Nitin Balodi
