Using the outcome of cell A in a formula in cell B as a worksheet
 

Cell A displays text based on an IF statement. for example: "Water"

I then have a worksheet titled "Water" and would like cell B to use the text
displayed in Cell A ("Water") to look at a cell reference on the "Water"
worksheet.

So the worksheet reference in cell B's formula is dynamically changing based
on the text in cell A.

Is this possible.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.
