How do I retrieve the contents of a Cell from different sheets?
Hi,
I am trying to create a function that will take a Sheet Name and location "A2" and return the contents of that cell. Secondly I would like to create a function that will take a Sheet Name and location "A2" and return the height of the cell. Thanks - mike |

Function WhatsInIt(r1 As Range, r2 As Range) As Variant
WhatsIt = Sheets(r1.Value).Range(r2.Value).Value End Function Function HowTall(r1 As Range, r2 As Range) As Variant HowTall = Sheets(r1.Value).Range(r2.Value).RowHeight End Function In an arbitrary worksheet, put: Sheet1 in A1 and Z100 in cell A2 Then =WhatsInIt(A1,A2) will return the contents of cell Z100 in Sheet1 and =HowTall(A1,A2) will return the height of cell Z100 in Sheet1 -- Gary''s Student - gsnu2007g "mike" wrote: Hi, I am trying to create a function that will take a Sheet Name and location "A2" and return the contents of that cell.

Is there a way to modify these functions so I can pass in the r1 and r2 values directly instead of from a table? Thanks - mike Function WhatsInIt(r1 As Range, r2 As Range) As Variant WhatsIt = Sheets(r1.Value).Range(r2.Value).Value <--- End Function |

Also how do you handle filenames with spaces. Thanks

We can make versions of the functions that use data directly rather than
getting the data from cells. For example: =WhatsInIt2("Sheet3","Z100") instead of the original forms. Check back tomorow for an update to this post. -- Gary''s Student - gsnu2007g "mike" wrote: Also how do you handle filenames with spaces. Thanks |
