The references in a series formula have to reference ranges, not
calculations. Define names like this:
name
=INDIRECT("'"&$O$2&"'!$I$2")
xvals
=INDIRECT("'"& $O$2 &"'!Labels2")
yvals
=INDIRECT("'"& $O$2 &"'Loads2")
and make your series formula look like this:
=SERIES(Hypo!name,Hypo!xvals,Hypo!yvals,4)
The reason one of the Hypo references changes to Collect.xls is that the
reference that changed is to a name that is defined for the worksheet (its
name is Loads2), while the one that didn't change is defined for the sheet
Hypo (its name is Hypo!Labels2).

Here is a static formula for the Series "Loads"
=SERIES(Hypo!$I$2,Hypo!Labels2,Collect.xls!Loads2, 4)
This only graphs what is on the Hypo page. (By the way, why is the last
Hypo subbed with Collect.xls?)
I need instead to switch between 3 pages. I tried the following:
=SERIES(INDIRECT("'"& $O$2 &"'!$I$2"),INDIRECT("'"& $O$2
&"'!Labels2"),INDIRECT("'"& $O$2 &"'Loads2"),4)
and Excel simply says That is not a valid function. The end.
Why doesn't this work? Each individual piece returns the right
information.
I appreciate any help you got. Have a great day!
