Default Best Way to Pull Data from Other Sheets

Hi,

You can use a lot of these types of formulas:

=INDIRECT("'"&A1&"'!A9")

Where the sheet name is in A1 and the data you are pulling in is in A9.

This technique will only work if all spreadsheet are identical. Otherwise
you will need to consider VBA programming.

I have 20 sheets of data that are formatted similarly. On the first sheet,
I want the user to select one of the 20 sheets and have Excel pull in a range
of data from that sheet.

What is the best way to allow for user input to select the sheet?
