    relevant part in function only copied when dragged down

    Hey, I am having a small issue with a formula but it's driving me crazy.

    ps: note that I am German, so the functions are in German as well so they differ a little bit, but that shouldn't matter

    I have this formula:

    =INDIREKT(""&$B$3&"!"&"$I2") -> indirekt is German for the indirect function

    I have several sheets with Data and one sheet to analyze.

    in B3 sheet 2) I type in which Data sheet I want to go to and then read out cell I2 there, which works fine. But as I drag down the formula in my analyzing sheet it only copies the function. what I would want is this:

    =INDIREKT(""&$B$3&"!"&"$I2")
    =INDIREKT(""&$B$3&"!"&"$I3")
    =INDIREKT(""&$B$3&"!"&"$I4") etc...

    Any ideas please?

    it works! thanks a lot.

    and if I want to drag to the right? so that the "I" changes to J, K, L etc...?
