Drag/copy down or up if you have more sheet names in column A
Note that A50 and A60 are text and will not increment.

I have different sheet names in column A. I would like to use the
sheet value in A to show a value in a specific cell in that sheet.
For example:
A12 has 'Test 1 & 2' (no 's) and I would like cells b12 and c12 to be
'Test 1 & 2'!A50 and 'Test 1 & 2'!A60 respectively. However, I do not
want to hard code the 'Test 1 & 2' text but would rather use the fact
that this string is already available in cell A12.
How can I do this?
Thanks
Thanks. That does work if the sheet names is a single word. However,
my sheets have several spaces and some symbols such as ',' and '&'.
How can I use them with this method?
Thanks again.
