Is it possible, to reference a defined name by referencing a cell whose
value is the same as the defined name?
There are 2 names, animal.dog and animal.cat, that reference a range of
cells: A1:D1 and A2:D2, respectively.
I would like to keep the absolute property of the named ranges with
respect to the column orientation. If I reference animal.dog on
another worksheet from the cell Ax, I would like it to return A1.
Cell A10's value is: animal.cat
Looking for way to accomplish something like the following. In cell
Cx: =name(A.10). And have it return the value of C1.
If this is possible, would like to take it a step further and use a
combination of a string and a reference to a cell's value to reference
a defined name.
Imagine it could look something like this. In cell Cx:
=refname("animal."&A10).
And the value returned would be from C column of the animal.dog defined
name, C1.
