Hi,

I was wondering if somebody could help me work out how to do a formula to lookup data within a closed spreadsheet where the date of the file changes each day with the suffix of todays date. I have been searching and trying to do this myself with the below formula but I don't seem to be getting anywhere with it.

VLOOKUP(A1,INDIRECT("[Z:\Example\Company "&TEXT(TODAY(),"yyyy-mm-dd")&".csv]Sheet1!F:L"),7,0)

The spreadsheet must remain closed for protection purposes.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
