Referencing worksheets

    Referencing worksheets

    Greetings,

    I have 52 worksheets, (week 1 - week 52), each is basically a timesheet
    for multiple and variable staff members.
    There are various calculation with regard to hours worked, tax, one each
    of the worksheets.

    I have another worksheet on which I wish to reference each of these
    worksheet to extract a total for each week.

    Q1: How do I reference each worksheet (week 1 etc) without having to
    enter week 1!A35+ week 2!A35 etc?

    Q2: How do I get a cell value from a worksheet into a Word document.
    specifically Cell c25 and j42?

    I have another worksheet which I want to add some more calculations on.
    These are based on a Thursday to Wednesday payment.

    Q3: Is there a simple way to use a formulae which I just type in a week
    number (based on the Thursday pay date) which in
    turn goes to the two week 1 & week 2 (or week 2 and week 3)etc then
    puts the data in the new worksheet?

    Ref Q2, I have named the cells, but I can never see them in Word.

    Using Office 2000

    Thanks in advance

    name
    =sum(first:last!a1)

    Re: Referencing worksheets

    Please keep all questions in the ng unless invited to send to a personal
    address. This way all may benefit from the questions/answers.

    name a worksheet first and name a worksheet as last>put all others you want
    to sum in between these>use the formula given.

    You can create a template worksheet and whenever you want to add another
    just right click on the sheet tab>copy>rename. Or, you may create a macro to
    do 4 or 52 at once.

    However, why not just use ONE worksheet and then use
    data>filter>autofilter or advanced filter to select dates desired.

    Don,
    Thanks for the answer it worked a treat.

    Can I be cheeky and ask one more thing of you....

    How do I make it conditional, for example how do I wrap it up in an if
    statement for the week 23 week 24 etc when they do not already exist.

    I am currently creating the worksheets as required (month at a time,
    create worksheet and copy last months basic form over to it (x 4
    ).)..... Is there a way of creating 52 identical worksheets with
    formulae's and formatting etc all in one swoop?

    Totally new to excel, trying to help my son get his business accounts
    working a little better than they have been. He keep losing track of
    stuff.

    Regards

    Kevin
