Ref. a cell in a formula

[wagnered]

Hello-

I am trying to reference a cell's contents in a formula. The cell is located in the same sheet but references a cell from another sheet.

Current formula: =LOOKUP(FHC!$A$2,$F$2:$F$13,$H$2:$H$13)

I would like to replace the "FHC! with the cell's contents found in F15 of the current sheet where the formula is found, sheet "admin".

Thanks for the help in advance.

You mean like:

=LOOKUP(F15,$F$2:$F$13,$H$2:$H$13)

The INDIRECT() function should serve.

=LOOKUP(INDIRECT("'" & Admin!$F$15 & "'!$A$2"),$F$2:$F$13,$H$2:$H$13)

=LOOKUP(INDIRECT("'" & $F$15 & "'!$A$2"),$F$2:$F$13,$H$2:$H$13)

You mean like:

=LOOKUP(F15,$F$2:$F$13,$H$2:$H$13)

No dice, that just gives the cell as a reference but doesn't use the contents which is the sheet's name which the rest of the formula refers to.

The INDIRECT() function should serve.

=LOOKUP(INDIRECT("'" & Admin!$F$15 & "'!$A$2"),$F$2:$F$13,$H$2:$H$13)

=LOOKUP(INDIRECT("'" & $F$15 & "'!$A$2"),$F$2:$F$13,$H$2:$H$13)

This gives the result in "TRUE" but should give a different result.

OK, so I take it all back...great formula! Thank you!
