Default How can I change the tab but keep the row and column constant

MG,

Here's my reply from a different part of this thread, in case you missed it.....

It depends on what you mean by "skip a row in between data"...

Enter this in cell I5:

=INDIRECT(TEXT((ROW()-ROW($I$4)-1)/2 +1,"000") & "!$L$46")

Leave I6 blank.

Then, select I5:I6, and copy.

Select I7 down to I???, enough for 2 rows for each sheet, then paste.

HTH,
Bernie

Well it's not really up to me, is there anyway to do this...or is that
getting too complicated?

My suggestion is to not do this. Don't add an empty row.

If you want to make it look pretty, then just increase the rowheight so that it
looks double spaced.

Peo,

Thanks I got it working now, what it was is that you thought it was I46 I
wanted when it was L46...letter's just got confused when typing lower and
upper cases. Also is there a way when you fill in the equation down the row
to skip a row in between filling. so there's a nice space between information?

You don't seem to understand what the formula does, this part

ROWS($A$1:A1)

should change

it's because you want the sheet names to change to

002 (which would be ROWS($A$1:A2))


and so on, it obviously shouldn't return the sheet name but what is in I46

If it doesn't work then it is because you either have spaces in the sheet
names, that you didn't explain in an understandable way what you wanted
(note that all answers are basically the same so I am not the only way
interpreting it this way) or you simply don't understand how to apply it
correctly

I've been trying it with no luck.

=INDIRECT("'"&TEXT(ROWS($A$1:A1),"000")&"'!I46")
changes to
=INDIRECT("'"&TEXT(ROWS($A$1:A2),"000")&"'!I46") for the next line and,
=INDIRECT("'"&TEXT(ROWS($A$1:A3),"000")&"'!I46") and so on...its not
changing th sheet names....001, 002, 003, etc.

Try it! The only thing that changes is the sheet name

Peo.

Didn't work. I have numerous tabs "001", "002", "003" etc and on each
one
of
them in column L and Row 46 I have information I want to transfer to
column I
on my main page "Mike". When I fill in the equation down I want the row
and
column part to remain and change the page number each time. Any other
ideas?

copied down will do what you want

How can I change the tab but keep the row and column constant when
filling
in
equations?

I'm orgainizing a excel spreadsheet in which I have many
sheets/tabs
in.
I'm trying to put a formula in on my main page where I can get the
data
from
many different sheets while keeping my column and row constant on
each
page.
I'm trying to do this so I can drag this down and it will
automatically
switch pages and while keeping column and roc constant. Example, my
main
tab/sheet is labeled "MIKE" and I want to put information from many
different
tabs/sheets in column "I" on the main page. Right now I've got the
formula
='001'!$l$46...and when I drag it down I want it to pick up sheet
'002'!$l$46
for the next line, '003'!$l$46 for the line after...etc. Is there
anyway I
can do that?? If someone could help me out I'd greatly appreciate.
