How do I get a worksheet reference to increment when copied
I have a significant number of identical worksheets that may contain
different values I need to consolidate to a single worksheet. If I have a column in the consolidation worksheet that pulls data from a source worksheet using cell formulae such as: ='Sheet 1'!$K9, is there a way in which I can get this to copy into adjacent, assending columns such that the worksheet reference would be automatically incremented i.e.: ='Sheet 2'!$K9, ='Sheet 3'!$K9, and so forth? I cannot seem to find anything that is on point but I'm sure there must be a way to accomplish this. |

You can use INDIRECT
=INDIRECT("'Sheet "&COLUMNS($A$1:A1)&"'!K9") copied across -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom Excel 95 - Excel 2007 Northwest Excel Solutions www.nwexcelsolutions.com "RAF" wrote in message ...

How do I get a worksheet reference to increment when copied
Peo,
Thank you for responding and pardon my apparent stupidity but this is one Excel function that I simply cannot seem to grasp. Perhaps if I more accurately descibed what I'm doing: I have six work sheets named "Disp 1" - "Disp 6" respectfully and I need to pull values from various cells in the "K" column of each source sheet and post them into disparate cells on the columns "X" through "AC", respectfully, of a consolidation sheet named "BOM." I've tried various revisions of the sample you provided without success. If possible could you provide a little more detail?

It would have been just as easy for you to post the actual sheet names in
your OP, whereas Peo's solution matched your scenario. Since your sheet numbers are consecutive, just replace the sheet name in the formula with your sheet names. NOTE: This is including a <space between name and number just as Peo used, following your original example: =INDIRECT("'Disp "&COLUMNS($A:A)&"'!K9") -- HTH, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "RAF" wrote in message ...

How do I get a worksheet reference to increment when copied
My apologies for not doing exactly that. Up until recently I have had no
issues in Excel I could not work through myself thus I have little experience using the discussion group and I used what appeared to be the form from a few other posts in trying to craft a reasonably clear question however, it is quite possible that the particular posts that looked at simply were still using the default worksheet names. I had actually logged back in to let Peo know that I had succeeded in using his recommended formula with the obvious substitution and the correct punctuation which I discovered I got wrong on prior attempts. I do have an additional question based on your response of: =INDIRECT("'Disp "&COLUMNS($A:A)&"'!K9") What difference does the ($A:A) make versus Peo's version ($A$1:A1) which I'm using?

How do I get a worksheet reference to increment when copied
AFAIK, less typing with mine.<g
They both return the same values. If you click in the formula bar, you'll see less cells referenced with his then mine ... but I doubt if that has any bearing on the XL efficiency. -- Regards, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "RAF" wrote in message ...
