Don't know if this is possible, but here is what I would like to do.

Right now I have a 20 Analysis Workbooks that contain detailed analysis and have 10-20 worksheets in each.

I am going to create a "Dashboard Workbook" that pulls data in from all the analysis workbooks.There is a tab for each analysis workbook with charts that represent the data from each of the worksheets. So if Analysis Workbook(1) has 20 worksheets, inside my Dashboard Workbook, I have a worksheet named Analysis 1 that has 20 charts.

This will work fine when the workbooks are on my machine, but the problem is its not very portable/updates automatically when stored on SharePoint/email/etc.

My thought here is to embed all of the workbooks in a Word Doc, will this solve my problem?
Is there a better way around this?

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
You can put the 20 Analysis Workbooks on SharePoint and then import as external data. Take a look here for more information on this method.
