Cell Value from String Name
I have a somewhat intersting problem that I'm having trouble solving.
Consider the following simplified spreadsheet: A B 1 2 2 B 55 3 =A2&A1 Now, the formula in A3 will become the string "B2." What I want is to be able to enter a formula in another cell, give it the string from A3, and have the value of that cell be 55. Is there a function that takes a string representing the position of a cell that returns that cell's value? (I know that this seems really dumb with the simplified example, but I need to use this for something more complex). Thanks, Ben |
