Formula with named ranges not working

[papermonkey]

this is the formula.
=IFERROR(SLOPE(IF(RANGE1=DATA1;IF(RANGE2=DATA2;IF(RANGE3=DATA3)));IF(RANGE1=DATA1;IF(RANGE2=DATA2;IF(RANGE4=DATA4))));"ERROR")

1. will this formula valid?
2. when i copy this formula to another workbook it is not creating a link to the master workbook. how to create a link ?

RANGE1,2,3,4 = named ranges of separate column data.
DATA1,2,3,4 = constant data criteria like year, month, employee id, salary

please help. thanks.
