I have some text in A2 and A3.

And in B1 to M1, I have names of sheets (to pick using INDIRECT).

The texts in A2 and A3 are somewhere in the sheets referenced in B1 to M1. Maybe it is in $M$13 in the sheet in B1, and maybe it is in $L$15 in the sheet in C2.

In B2 to M2, I want to know the exact reference of the item in A2 from the sheet referenced in B1 to M1.
In B3 to M3, I want to know the exact reference of the item in A3 from the sheet referenced in B1 to M1.

How can I do that?
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
