Hello all
I have a question about how to edit the formula below so that it looks up a result in an external workbook (rather than in another tab).
=INDIRECT("'" & $D$8 & "'!"&ADDRESS(ROW(H95),COLUMN(H95),4))
A spreadsheet that I completed with a bit of help from this forum (thank you again!!) is getting far too many tabs (currently around 30 and likely to at least double). I thought that it may be better than rather having each tab as a point of reference, separate Excel worksheets would easier to navigate between/edit/add to.
For example if cell D8 contained the word "ITEM-A", the cell will then return the result from ROW(H95),COLUMN(H95) on the worksheet named ITEM-A.xlsx
All of these external workbooks could be saved in the same file as the 'master' spreadsheet, however if they were stored in a sub-folder that would also be fine.
I have been trying to work this out myself but my Excel abilities are still somewhat lacking.
Any help would again be really appreciated!
Thank you for your time.
