I'm trying to use this formula to perform a Vlookup and it technically works but obviously Excel doesn't allow this much text. Does anyone know how I could shorten it? I need to search all of the named sheets
 

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
If you are returning text...

Create a range housing the names of all of the relevant sheets. Select this range and the selection SheetList and invoke the following formula:

Control+shift+enter, not just enter:
Rich (BB code):
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A5,INDIRECT("'"&LOOKUP(REPT("z",255),
  IF(COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'"&SheetList&"'!A:A"),A2),SheetList))&"'!A:B"),2,0),
  "N/A")
