I have a spreadsheet, that needs to look up internal and external rates.

Currently I use Vlookup and tell it which tab to look for based on the project it is on. In my spreadsheet I have Column B that says the Tab reference.

Is there a Formula that I can set so it automatically uses the Vlookup in the correct tab?

=VLOOKUP($H485,'EX51'!$I$2:$S$57,11,FALSE) = the EX51 is where I am telling it what tab, looking to change that to check Cell B for the correct tab.

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
