I can do a vlookup for data from a closed workbook, but it requires me to code the formula to the destination cell.

Code:
worksheet("Sheet1") = “=VLOOKUP(RC[-3],(‘C:\exceltrainingvideos\[customers-email-mobile.xlsx]Sheet1’!R2C1:R10C3),2,FALSE)”
as an example.

Is there a means of doing this without applying the formula to the cell? I suspect that after I save the workbook, and reopen it, I get flagged that cells contains links to other workbooks that I'd like to avoid.
