I want to save the value in tab="Database" to a variable.

But I don't want to activate the sheet everytime, since this seems to slow
things down a lot.

So originally I was writing:

Sheets("Database").select
X = Range("F4").Value

But is there another way to set X=Range F4, without selecting the sheet?

Thanks

Good man!

X = Sheets("Database").Range("F4").Value

Dim X as Variant
x = worksheets("database").range("f4").value
