Using contents of a cell as the sheet name in another formula
Since you have spaces in the worksheet name, you could use:
=indirect("'" & a1 & "'!c4")

A B
1 Res A ='Res A'!C4
2 Res B ='Res B'!C4
Right now, 'Res A' and 'Res B' in column B are hard coded. I want them to
refer to the text in column A so when I copy the formulas down, the
references are updated automatically instead of having to do it manually.
Once we make that work, the equation I really need to embed the variable
sheet names in is a little more complicated, and looks like this:
B C
4 Res A =INDEX('Res A'!$A$1:$AZ$256, MATCH($A$1,'Res
A'!$A$1:$A$256,),
MATCH(C$1,'Res A'!$A$1:$AZ$1,))
Where all 3 instances of 'Res A' need to be replaced by a variable expression.
