        Let's say the cells A2 and C2 are on a sheet named Data Sheet in a workbook named MyBook.xlsx.

         

        You can use the following formula in a cell on another sheet in the same workbook:

         

        =IF('Data Sheet'!C2="", "", 'Data Sheet'!A2)

         

        And in a cell in a different workbook:

         

        =IF('[MyBook.xlsx]Data Sheet'!C2="", "", '[MyBook.xlsx]Data Sheet'!A2)
