Remote Data Transfer

In trying to import data from an external source into
Excel using the request form =FILENAME|PATH.SOURCE, we are
unable to use filenames longer than eight characters. In
our particular case, we must use longer filenames.

Is there any way to:

a) Use longer file names
b) Alias the longer name to a shorter name (within Excel)
c) Any other way around this problem

Any help would be appreciated.
