One way would be via using INDIRECT
Perhaps a simple example to illustrate ..
In Sheet4,
Suppose we list sheetnames across in B1:D1,
eg: Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3
and we have the cell refs of interest listed down in A2:A3,
eg: A1, A3
Then, we could put in B2: =INDIRECT("'" & B$1 & "'!" & $A2)
and copy B2 across & down to D3 ..
B2:D2 will return the same as the link formulas:
=Sheet1!A1, =Sheet2!A1, etc
B3:D3 will return the same as the link formulas:
=Sheet1!A3, =Sheet2!A3, etc
INDIRECT resolves the concatenation of the sheetname and cell ref text
strings to return the results from the particular sheet and cell listed in
B1:D1, and in A2:A3. So we could design the layout and define / change the
sheetnames and cell ref text strings in the header row/col to suit the
purpose.
And for a neater look, we could also suppress the display of "extraneous"
zeros in Sheet4 via clicking Tools Options View tab Uncheck "Zero
values" OK

Hi,
I am using Excel 2002 and work on a workbook.
Inside the workbook, there are 3 sheets: Sheet 1, Sheet 2, Sheet3
For each of the sheet, Cell A1 and A3 (two cells) both contain the data
that I want.
Question:
I want to have Sheet 1: Cell A1 and A3, Sheet 2: Cell A1 and A3, Sheet
3: A1 and A3 data shown on a new sheet, say Sheet 4.
1)
Is there an automatic way that all these 3 sheets can be "exported" to
Sheet 4?
2)
Any other method than marking " = Sheet1!A1 " etc in Sheet 4?
Thanks.
