Hello, I'm new to the forum and hoping someone can help me.
I'm trying to agregate data across monthly entries in a way that is easy to update with each new month.
For example, the display cell would contain =AVERAGE(INDIRECT("R14")). R14 would then contain '2021-04:2020-07'!E5, where the two yyyy-mm dates are the names of the sheets within the file. I've also tried directly referencing the cell as both a string and a value. Each throws a different error.
=AVERAGE(INDIRECT("R14")) ==> #DIV/0!
=AVERAGE(INDIRECT(R14)) ==> #REF!
=AVERAGE(R14) ==> #DIV/0!
=AVERAGE("R14") ==> #VALUE!
Is this even a valid method or am I up the creek? Is there a simpler way to accomplish the same thing? Ideally, I'd like to get summary data over the whole set and over the past year.
Thank you!
