Lookup worksheet name in separate workbook
How can I change the 'sheetname' in this formula based on the value (name) in
a cell or can I match the name of the current sheet to an identical sheet in another workbook? =[Workbook.xls]Sheetname!Cell |

You can use INDIRECT
=INDIRECT("'[Workbook.xls]"&C1&"'!Cell") note that the other workbook has to be open Regards, Peo Sjoblom "daj32" wrote: How can I change the 'sheetname' in this formula based on the value (name) in a cell or can I match the name of the current sheet to an identical sheet in another workbook? =[Workbook.xls]Sheetname!Cell |

That is great! Thanks - I've always assumed that it couldn't be done but this
will solve a LOT of problems that I have...

It looks like I can only see the results of this formula if BOTH workbooks
are open at the same time...is there anyway to avoid this? "D Johnson" wrote: That is great! Thanks - I've always assumed that it couldn't be done but this will solve a LOT of problems that I have...

It's possible but somewhat complicated
