How do you create a VBA formula code based on Filename?

[genracela]

I have a match index formula that will look up data from another file, but the filename changes everyweek.

How will I create a VBA formula code if filename changes?

Below is my sample formula line, usually only the date on the filename changes (highlighted in red").

[vba]Range("A7:A" & lRow).Formula = "=INDEX('G:\SCP\Consolidated\Product Supply Report\2010\Export Product Supply\Malaysia\[CAMPAIGNLY MAJOR OFFER SUPPORTABILITY_CFT_062310.xls]PSR'!H$7:H$65536,MATCH($F1,'G:\SCP\Consolidated\Product Supply Report\2010\Export Product Supply\Malaysia\[CAMPAIGNLY MAJOR OFFER SUPPORTABILITY_CFT_062310.xls]PSR'!$F$7:$F$65536,))"[/vba]

dim strDay as string
strDay = "062310"
Range("A7:A" & lRow).Formula = "=INDEX('G:\SCP\Consolidated\Product Supply Report\2010\Export Product Supply\Malaysia\[CAMPAIGNLY MAJOR OFFER SUPPORTABILITY_CFT_" & strDay & ".xls]PSR'!H$7:H$65536,
MATCH($F1,'G:\SCP\Consolidated\Product Supply Report\2010\Export Product Supply\Malaysia\[CAMPAIGNLY MAJOR OFFER SUPPORTABILITY_CFT_" & strDay & ".xls]PSR'!$F$7:$F$65536,))" 

Use a string variable and create a script to calculate the day.

Hope this gives you an idea.

Can I do
strDay = range("A1") ???

[Gollem]

Yes that should work:

 
strDay = range("A1").value

You should test it.
Let me know the outcome.
