Hi All,

I'm hoping that someone will be able to help me as I am at my wits end.

I have created a cell reference from the tab/sheet name as below:

In cell U5 is this
=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,255)

This retrieves number 1 for example

In cell V5 is this
=CONCATENATE("A",U5+3)
This creates the cell value A4

Using this cell number I want to pull the data from another sheet, the standard formula would look like the below which in itself is very simple however when I want to us the cell number created from cell V5 I am unable to find away to do it. V5 is a moving feast but would always be numeric + 3

Formula I would like is
='SCORING BY MONTH'!A4


Would really appreciate the help, i'm sure its very simple but I just can't see it.

Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
You need to use the INDIRECT function to reference a cell address that is text...

=INDIRECT("'SCORING BY MONTH'!"&V5)
