Dear Expert,
I have a problem, I have 30 sheets which are named from 1 to 30. In another sheet, I mentioned a formula taking a reference of 1 sheet and when I drag the formula the name of the sheet should change automatically.
Ex: in a cell the formula is - ='1'!$J$1
and when I drag the formula the name of the sheet has to change to ='2'!$J$1, likewise for the entire 30 sheets.

Please help me in this regard.

Regards,
Murali Krishna
 

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
What version of Excel are you using?

I suggest that you update your Account details (or click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)

Also what cell are you putting that formula in?

Ok Sir, I will update the account details.
now about the problem.
I have 30 sheets named from 1 to 30
and in 31 sheet in cell A1 I took a reference cell
Ex. A1 = '1'!$J$1 then when I drag the formula down
the formula should change automatically like A2 = '2'!$J$1

Ok, how about
Excel Formula:
=INDIRECT("'"&ROWS(A$1:A1)&"'!J1")
