Referencing a cell from another worksheet

Hi,

I'm sure this is very simple, but can someone please tell me the syntax to
access a cell from another worksheet?

e.g. =sum(F4+sheet[1]_A1)


Also, is it possible to access a cell from another /file/ ? Id imagine not
for security reasons, but thought I would ask whilst I am here.



Many thanks for your help,


Mark

=sum(f4+Sheet1!A1)

Hope it helps!

For within the same Workbook.........

=f4+Sheet1!A1)

To retrieve from another workbook...........

=F4+'C:\_ChuckStuff\[book2.xls]Sheet1'!A1

Adjust the path and filename accordingly.....
