    Use INDIRECT To Refer Sheet Name

    I have multiple sheets as Name1 ; Name2 ; Name3 and each sheet have a value on cell A1 for any number let say between 0 to 100. On another sheet call SheetName, I have A1=Name1 ; A2=Name2 ; A3=Name3.

    I have formula as:

    The INDIRECT formula work to refer each cell A1 in each sheet, however if the sheet name include a space then it won't work anymore. Anyone know how to make it work with the sheet name with space?

    =SUMIF(INDIRECT('Sheet Name'!A1:A3&"!A1"),"<50")

    Sheet names that include spaces need to be enclosed in single quotes.

    Thanks for the reply. This =SUMIF(INDIRECT('Sheet Name'!A1:A3&"!A1"),"<50") works but the problem is when refer to the sheet Name 1 ; Name 2 ; Name 3 with cell value A1=Name 1 ; A2=Name 2 ; A3=Name 3. Any idea?
