Hi,
When copy the following direct into excel i dont get any errors, works perfectly but if i put it into a module and run it, i get syntax error...

=average(INDIRECT($A2&"!a:a"))*SUM(INDIRECT($A2&"!B:B"))+1

But VBA it doesnt not allow me, what am i doing wrong?

Range("E2").Formula = "=average(INDIRECT($A2&"!a:a"))*SUM(INDIRECT($A2&"!B:B"))+1"
 

Excel Facts

Enter current date or time
Ctrl+: enters current time. Ctrl+; enters current date. Use Ctrl+: Ctrl+; Enter for current date & time.
You need to double up on the " inside the formula, like
$A2&""!a:a""
