Hi Don,
I've used INDIRECT before to produce text strings, however I couldnt
workout
from the help text how to use it within the formula I listed, I tried this
=VLOOKUP(O2,INDIRECT("O1")*A4:L3000,12,FALSE)
where O1 contains the tab name I want to refer to, but this didnt work

I have a formula that looks up data in a sheet using Vlookup, every week
the
formula changes as the week number changes.
The tab to look for data has a tab name of wk## and thus the forumla
for
week 28 looks like this
=VLOOKUP(O2,wk28!A4:L3000,12,FALSE)
How can I substitue the wk28 tab number in the formual for a cell
reference
that contains the text "wk28" ?
This will save me modifying forumlas on weekly basis.
Thanks
