Help needed with cell reference
I am trying to piece together info from three cells in an effort to reference
another cell. EXAMPLE A1 = 2008 (This is a hyperlink that links to worksheet('2008') A2 = 19 A3 = G The active worksheet is STATS. Can a formula can be setup to reference 2008!G19 by referencing A1, A2, and A3? The current formula is IF(2008!G24=0,"",2008!G19) It is to complicated to explain why I need it this way, but I just do. Thanks, Les |

Help needed with cell reference
I need A1 in there instead of "2008!" for the year reference. I did try
INDIRECT but kept getting #REF error. Was not sure how to fix problem. I may look at INDEX to see if I can figure something out The reason I am going through all of this is it is way to much trouble to change the cell references from year to year. If each year is a mirror image of each other than I can indicate column, row, and year and piece it together to reference what I need.

Thanks. That is a slightly different format than I was using. I'll see what
happens.
