    Maintain formula if sheet removed

    I have two sheets for example. We will call them Bang and Earlobe.

    If on Bang, I have a reference in cell A1 that sets it to be equal to F6 on Earlobe and I change the name of the Earlobe sheet, it dynamically updates.

    If I delete the Earlobe sheet, I get a reference, and even if I recreate the Earlobe sheet, it remains a reference on Bang.

    How can I maintain the =Earlobe!F6 in cell A1 on Bang regardless of the existence of an Earlobe sheet?

    You can't.

    If a sheet is deleted, you can't take any information of (the deleted) sheet.

    What you could do before delete the sheet.

    copy => paste special => value.

    Then the reference in A6 will change in the value of that cell.
    Notice my main language is not English.

    I appreciate it, if you reply on my solution.

    If you are satisfied with the solution, please mark the question solved.
