    Using number part of cell reference in a formula?

    Hi there,

    I want to use the number part of a cell reference of one worksheet in to index some figures onto another worksheet.

    I have tried =INPUT!$A(ROW(INPUT!$A5+8) but its returning an 'name?' error.

    Please see the attached for an example, any other ideas suggestions to do it are welcome.

    Essentially I would have to manually input into either worksheet but inputting into INPUT would be quicker than into HEADCOUNT.

    Thanks in advance,

    Do you want the numbers from the INPUT tab transferred to the HEADCOUNT tab?
