Default How do I create formula that allows the worksheet ref. to be c

If A1 has the sheet name and B1 has the column letter, you can use

=INDIRECT("'"&A1&"'!"&B1&"10")

to return the value in Row 10 of the column named in B1 on the worksheet
named in A1.

defined as well? Imbed another Indirect formula??
Appreciate your help!

If I understand correctly, you can use the INDIRECT function for this.
For
example, if cell A1 has a sheet name, the following formula will return
the
value in cell C10 of the worksheet named in A1.

=INDIRECT("'"&A1&"'!C10")

Would like to allow user to be able pick amongst Multiple worksheets
via
in-cell dropdown and formulas to change.

IE - what do I have to do to make

=SHEET1!D5

point to a cell and allow user tyo make it Sheet2! or Sheet 3! etc?
