Okay, Trevor Nash pointed out why I was wrong: an absolute path won't work in 
this case because you are using the document() function to switch source 
documents.  Sorry about the confusion.

But if you'll read further, you'll notice:

     ^^^^^^                                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If storing it in a variable doesn't work either, then please let me know.  But 
try that first before you whine.
