Still more perfect to suit your anticipated needs: If you have a drop down
list of worksheet names in the column A from A2 downwards, and addresses of
sevaral referenced cells in the worksheets in the row 1 from B1 to the right,
you could use formula with anchored references
= INDIRECT("'" & $A2 & "'!" & B$1)
and copy it downwards and to the right.

Hello,

This hopefully should be easy :) :)

I want to reference a value in a different sheet, but I want the sheet to be
choosen by the contents of another cell.

So in other words, if I have a drop down menu of my Sheet names in A1 - I
want to be able to use this 'kind' of formula in B1, '=A1!B3'. The end result
would be to return the value of B3 from the sheet choosen in A1.

This obviously doesn't work, which is why I need help :)

Any Ideas Please?

Many Thanks

Mark
