Thanks for the info.

That'll work but there is a caveat.

This would probably only apply if you're using the default sheet names.

If the sheet already exists then it's no problem. If the sheet does not
exist and you insert a new sheet the formula will not update until some
event triggers a calculation (like renaming a newly inserted sheet!).
Deleting the sheet referenced will trigger a calcualtion and the formula
would update.

Think IF(ISERROR(..) could be used

Try it in this manner:
=IF(L2="","",IF(ISERROR(INDIRECT("'"&L2&"'!B"&ROW( $A$2))),"",INDIRECT("'"&L2&"'!B"&ROW($A$2))))

This is the function I currently have:
=IF(L2<"",INDIRECT("'"&L2&"'!B"&ROW($A$2)),"")

I want to modify it in the following way....
=IF(L2<"", {IF STATEMENT} INDIRECT("'"&L2&"'!B"&ROW($A$2)),"")

I want to add another if statement where shown above to check if there is
a
sheet called '"&L2&'"! . So basically IF('"&L2&'"! EXISTS, TRUE, FALSE)

Thanks in advance for any help!
