I have a workbook that contains formulas with sheet references. I have
created a template sheet that I am using over and over. On this template
sheet I have a have a range of cells with these formulas for example:
='sheet1'!c5
='sheet1'!c6
='sheet1'!c7
Every time I make a copy of the template sheet then I have to edit each
one
of these cells and change the 'sheet' name to reference to correct
corresponding sheet. How can I set these formulas so that they have a
variable for the sheet name that is updated when I enter the desired sheet
name in a cell and have the formulas automatically pull that name in and
set
it as the sheet name? for example if I type 001-200 in cell B5 then the
formulas change to look like this:
='001-200'!c5
='001-200'!c6
='001-200'!c7
Thanks for the help.
