    Exclamation Named Range + VBA

    Hi all,

    Having some big problems and this has been racking my brain for days.

    I have a summary page that includes the titles for each tab within the excel 2003 workbook.

    I want to use the names of the tabs in the summary page and create it into a formula to lookup fixed cells within the various tabs. Sorry for not uploading an excel doc but I was at work earlier and the thread did not load for some reason, so I am reposting it.

    If you need any further information then please let me know. :o)

    The function you want is INDIRECT().

    With sheetnames in column A, and the desire for cell B10 from every sheet, this formula in B1 copied down:

    =INDIRECT("'" & A1 & "'!B10")

    Your post does not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution. Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.
    To change a Title on your post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.
    Sincerely,
    Leith Ross
