I have two Excel Workbooks:
I want to reference Data.xlsx from Report.xlsx and I reference using the following formula:
=INDEX('[Data.xlsx]Sheet1'!$A$7:$F$33,2,6)
It works fine. However if I try to reference the next cell I get a #REF error.
=INDEX('[Data.xlsx]Sheet1'!$A$7:$F$33,2,7)
It's behaving like I'm querying outside the bounds of the range. How can I debug this error?

Hi.
A7:F33 is 6 columns, and you are referencing the 7th column, which is outside the bounds. :>)
