Is there a way to write an Excel function so it can read a variable and use
it as a reference?
For instance, to read a value from cell C1 in Sheet2 to A1 in Sheet1 I would
write the following function in A1:
=Sheet2!C1
But let's say I programmed a calculation that will give me an answer to cell
B1 in Sheet1, where the answer could be either Sheet2, Sheet3 or Sheet4. How
do I write the new function in cell A1 so it will use the result in B1 in
it's function, for instance;
=(Value in B1)!C1
