    How can I reference a sheet by forming the name of the sheet from a separate cell?

    Hi

    I need to reference a sheet in my workbook by forming the name of the sheet from a separate cell.

    Specifically:

    Assume my workbook has two sheets, one named MySheet. In this sheet:

    Cell A1 has the value query123456789
    Cell A2 needs to reference a cell (P2) in the second worksheet named query123456789

    What do I write in cell A2?

    I hope I have illustrated my problem clearly. If not, please let me know what I need to clarify.

    All help will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks
    RB
