functions derived from cell contents
 
Lets's day A1 has the letter B in it and A2 has the number 3 in it.

Is it possible to have a formula display the contents of B3 using
references to cells A1 and A2?

Thanx

Try this:

=INDIRECT(A1&A2)

Does that help?

What a waste of my time and effort answering the same question in the
programming news group.

Please refrain from multi-posting.

Cross-post if you must, but not multi-post.
