Use cell value as reference to sheet in formula?
Hello, I would like to use the value of a cell to be the name of a sheet in a formula. So for instance: A1 contains the word "Sheet1" A2 has the formula "='Sheet1'!C3" Rather than put the sheet name in A2, is it possible to use the value in A1 in the formula in A2? hope that makes sense. -- bluegnu ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bluegnu's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=36108 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=558830 |

Use cell value as reference to sheet in formula?
OK, I've been using this loads, but now I've tried to using nested in the Hyperlink function. I did this: =HYPERLINK(INDIRECT(A1&"!C3"),INDIRECT(A1&"!C3")) Now the friendly name bit works OK, but the hyperlink doesn't. Is it possible to create a hyperlink using this method? thanks -- bluegnu ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bluegnu's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=36108 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=558830 |
