    Search in named tab dependent on cell value [SOLVED]

    Hey all!

    I have a question regarding this issue I'm having.

    I got a large workbook with many tabs in it, named 1, 2, 3... till 100. In each tab I got a value in the cell A1.

    I also have a first tab called "search". I want to be able to type in cell A1 of the "search" tab a value between 1 and 100 and get the value that it is the specific tab in cell A2. For example, if I write 53 in cell A1, I would get the value of A1 on tab "53" on A2 on the "search" tab.

    Is this possible?
