Yes, you could put in B2. Or any other open cell.

The second formula with index, would that be placed in
B2?

Searching an entire sheet is requires some serious
processing power and probably isn't necessary. Let's
assume that you want to examine A1:A100 on each sheet.
1. List the sheet names to search down col. A,
starting
in A5.
2. Put this formula in B5 and copy down:
=SUMPRODUCT(--EXACT(INDIRECT("'"&A5&"'!A1:A100"),$A$2))
3. Now use this to pull in the Sheet name with the
value:
=INDEX(A5:A26,MATCH(1,B5:B26,0))

What formula would I use for this process:
I'm putting this formula in cell B2 of worksheet 1.
First: take the number that has been entered in cell
A2
of worksheet 1
Second: Search through worksheets 3-24 and find that
number (the number will
be unique through out the worksheets being searched)
Third: Display the name of the worksheet it was found
in.
I'm hoping this is possible without using VBA. If it
is
going to need VBA
please bare with me since I have never used it.
Thank You For The Help!
