    reffer to other sheet

    Hello,
    I have a workbook with a lot of sheets, one of them is an index sheet where I have listed all the names of the different sheets.
    In this index sheet I want a second column where I refer to a value (A8) in the sheet using the name of the index sheet. Can someone help me with this question?
    I can do it manually by ='sheet24'!A8, but I want it to look at the sheet that is listed in the index sheet.
    INDEX:
    sheet1
    Sheet2
    production1
    planning1
    planning2
    .
    .
    .
    sheet104

    the names of the sheets are random.
    Thank you guys in advance!

    Re: reffer to other sheet

    Try this:

    =INDIRECT("'"&A1&"'!A8")

    where A1 is the first cell in your index of sheet names.

    Copy down.

    If this isn't what you mean, then provide a clear sample workbook with a manual mock up, please.
