Default Using Dynamic Cell Address As Formula Location

Oh, in that case you'll need to use VBA code. I can't help you with that.
Someone that can do that will probably "stop in" or, you could post this
question in the programming forum.

Do you want to use that reference in another formula?

Assume the result of that formula is in cell A1.

Since that formula can return either a blank or a text reference you'd
have
to test for the blank:

=IF(A1="",value_if_true,....................)

If A1 does contain the text reference then you need to use the INDIRECT
function to reference it: INDIRECT(A1). Since you didn't describe how you
want to use that reference I don't know how to finish the above IF
formula.

I am using the following formula to return cell address $G$16:
=IF(E110,CELL("address",OFFSET(E17,-1,E17)),"")


I wish to then use the cell address as a formula location...cell
address will change depending on the value in E17.


Appreciate any ideas.


Thanks,

in the example I wish to populate cell $G$16 with something like
$B5*E11
