    Reference cell in another sheet with sheet name in B2

    Hi all,
    I have sheet names (same as class names) entered in B2:B22. I want to look cells in each sheet, but don't want to manually enter each in case class names change shortly.

    Is there a way for a formula to look in another cell for the sheet name?

    i.e. instead of ='ClassA'!D8, it would look in B2 for the value 'ClassA'. so: =B2!B8

    Help much appreciated!

    Thanks

    Luke

    You can use indirect for that

    =INDIRECT("'"&B2&"'!B8")
