I'm working in Excel for Inventory. I made several worksheet in a file.
I want to make a summary page for each worksheet.
I want: when I put the worksheet name in A1 cell, B1 cell refer this name as
worksheet name like:
A1: sheet1
B1: sheet1!$A$1
when I change A1 to sheet2, B1 should chang to: sheet2!$A$1

Anyone knows how to do it?

=A1&"!$A$1"

Is that what you're looking for?

You'll havd to do something like the following:

=[list.xls]Sheet1!$A$1&"!$a$1"

you'll havd to substitute whatever your worksheet name is for "Sheet1".
Hope it helps!

=INDIRECT(A1&"!A1")

The first A1 refers to the cell with the sheet name (in your case 'sheet1'),
the second A1 pulls out the value from cell A1 in the referenced sheet.
