Schedule from another file

Is it possible to reference a schedule from another file into a project?  I have two buildings that I'm working on for one drawing set, and I'd like the signage schedule from one building to show up on the sheet in a different file.  I know how to insert view from file and pick the schedule, but then it just adjusts the schedule to the rooms in the current file.  I'd like it to show rooms from the other file.  The only way I can figure to do it is to make a jpeg of the signage schedule and reference it in, which isn't the greatest because it doesn't update itself.

When you create a schedule in your project there is a selection box for "Include elements in links"

With some filtering your should be able to recreate the schedule, with life updating. You can for example select parameter "RVT Link: Name" and use that as filter

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.

So I did that, but nothing is showing up in my schedule.  For my filter I set RVT Link: Name contains (one of the words in my file name).  Should I be doing something different?

Should be RVT Link: File Name, not RVT Link: Name.
