    problems with indirect formula

    Hello. Why is this indirect formula not working? Thanks. It's returning a VALUE error.

    =SUM('ACTUALS summary'!AL115:INDIRECT(O8&"115"))*1000

    =SUM(INDIRECT("'ACTUALS summary'!AL115:"&O8&"115"))*1000

    should work.

    Cool thanks. Why doesn't it work the way that I did it?

    Re: problems with indirect formula

    The INDIRECT needs to take in the whole arguemt which is Actuals!AL115:XX115.

    If that takes care of your original question, please select Thread Tools from the menu link above and mark this thread as SOLVED. It'd also be appreciated if you were to click the add Reputation button at the foot of any of the posts of those who helped you reach a solution.
