referring to sheet in another file

T

Tami

my question is below, i'm re-asking as i was unable to make it work even with
the other file open...but maybe my formula is incorrect.
can you elaborate on what the formula would look like?

ALWAYS stay in the ORIGINAL thread for responses. ALWAYS!!!

=VLOOKUP(E14,INDIRECT("'[book2]"&D14&"'!$A$2:$D$9"),2,0)
where d14 contains the tab title such as 89
or
=VLOOKUP(E15,INDIRECT("'[book2]"&ROW(A89)&"'!$A$2:$D$9"),2,0)
