    Ref. a cell in a formula

    I need to reference a cell in the following program but can't seem to get this one figured out:

    =INDIRECT("'" & $G$1 & "'!" & admin!G$45 & admin!$N2)

    Were I want the "45" to be the cell contents of H1.

    Thanks for the help in advance!

    What is H1 in this context?

    It's a number, in this case it contains the number 45 but this will change from sheet to sheet with a load of cells referencing it.

    I don't get it, you say it is 45, yet you want it to be 45. I think a further explanation of the problem might help.
