Filter using result of formula

I'm trying to filter using the name of the sheet using the following common Excel Formula:

=MID(CELL("filename"),FIND("]",CELL("filename"))+1,255)

This formula works if put into a cell not related to JET.
The JET report itself also works if I type in the value directly, actually "07" in text.
However, if I use it in a cell which is in the range of an NL() "Filters=" clause:

  1. JET takes an awfully long time to refresh
  2. The formula result is not displayed, but the formula is
  3. The report stops working and usually crashes Excel

I have tried all sorts including:

  • Calculating the formula in another cell and referencing that cell
  • Using NP("Eval","=FORMULA_ABOVE")
  • Using NP("Formula","=FORMULA_ABOVE")

Any ideas, or is this simply not possible?
