I have a cell suppose B1 = "APPL"
I have a Table named "APPL_PRICE" which has Date column & Price Column.
I want to VLOOKUP a specific Date( in A1) from the table using the reference of B1
Such as =VLOOKUP($A$1,APPL_PRICE[Date],2,FALSE)
But instead i need to use reference of B1
=VLOOKUP($A$1,(B1&"_PRICE")[Date],2,FALSE) as i have 50 other tables to do the same work. Instead of selecting the table array present indifferent worksheets,I have named them and want to use them
 

Excel Facts

Workdays for a market open Mon, Wed, Friday?
Yes! Use "0101011" for the weekend argument in NETWORKDAYS.INTL or WORKDAY.INTL. The 7 digits start on Monday. 1 means it is a weekend.
Hi & welcome to MrExcel.
How about
Excel Formula:
=VLOOKUP($A$1,INDIRECT(B1&"_PRICE"),2,FALSE)

And suppose i had to vlookup from the 3rd row in such table. My vlookup value is not in the 1st column then? Like using APPL_PRICE[Volume] being vlookup in the column of Volume in the table
Using Indirect for this particular instance doesn't work

It doesn't matter what row it's on, vlookup looks down the whole column.

You posted a very general question with a formula that would not work, so I gave you a general solution.
Without accurate information I cannot do any more.
