Unique Situation
So I have a unique situation for excel.
I have one spreadsheet that I would like to have the formula's automatically applied to instead of having to put it into the spreadsheet everytime I use the template.
Second issue is that I am using two other spreadsheets to populate the template and the reference spreadsheet names change daily.
Here is an example
Spreadsheet one = Ref1Jan2019#1
Spreadsheet two = Ref1Jan2019#2
Formula for the template or master spreadsheet is as follows.
=vlookup(g2,'[Ref#1]Sheet1'!$1:1048576,#,false)
=vlookup(g2,'[Ref#2]Sheet1'!$1:1048576,#,false)
#=the column I am refering to on that particular spreadsheet
Spreadsheets one and two change date based off the date the report is run.
So is there a way to automagically update the formula or am I destined to spend my time re-typing the formula in everytime I need to update the master spreadsheet or is there a better method to get the results?
Thanks in advance.
