    Indirect with Formatted Tables (single cell reference)

    Hi --

    Is it possible to create an indirect formula referencing only a single cell within a formatted table?

    I have a table with rates by month, and I want a column that always shows the rates for whatever month is input in a cell.

    The headers are in YYYY-MM format.

    Example: If I wanted the column to pull the rates from the 2018-08 column, the normal formula would be '=[@[2018-08]]'.
    However, when I try to make this an indirect formula (with the '2018-08' referenced in cell B2, lets say), I get an error.

    Is there a way to make this work?

    (fyi, each line has a unique value in column [Person]; just in case you think there's a different way to get to what I'm looking for, vs just a single cell reference)

    Thank you!

    I recommend uploading a small representative sample of your data along with the desired results (which you can enter manually) based on that data.

    To upload an Excel workbook, follow these steps:
    1) Click on "Go Advanced"
    2) Click on "Manage Attachments"
    3) Click on "Choose File"
    4) Choose your file and click on "Open"
    5) Click on "Upload"
    6) Click on "Close this window"
