Default Simple Indirect Function?

Hi all. In sheet1, cell A1 I have a pick list that has all the sheet
names in the workbook. In cell D5, I need a formula that is a cell
reference to B75 of whatever worksheet is selected in cell A1. Any
ideas? Thanks!

=INDIRECT(A1& "!B75")

But you'll need to add the single quotes if the sheet name in A1 has spaces
in it.

I just noticed that. But for some reason, my testing showed it to work
without it. Do you have any idea why that would be?

Never mind. I didn't read your reply correctly. I missed the part about
the space. Sorry for my confusion.

Thanks.
