Reference Value From Another Sheet?

Jul 24, 2013

I have a spreadsheet, that I have been using for years to estimate jobs. I started learning excel, by building this sheet. It is still a work in progress, as am I. I am always trying to figure out ways to make my life simpler by making the sheet more intelligent. I would like to be able to go from one sheet, to another and click on a part name, which would return a value associated with that part name, to an additive formula on the first sheet, to build and assembly. And, eventualy build a parts list from it as well. For ordering parts.

Nov 1, 2009

As an example, say I have in Sheet1, cell A1, the text Sheet2. And let's say I want to return the value of cell B2 on whichever sheet the text of A1 says. So, on Sheet1, I might have this:

Cross Reference Information From One Sheet With Another Sheet

Jul 14, 2009

I have a spreadsheet that shows a large number of folks we had working in a particular division from Jan. 1st until now, 1800 +. Some of the folks are on the sheet twice due to having more than one role. The sheet lists last name, first name, skill description, pay rate, company they worked at...etc. Most of the folks on the list are not currently working but some are. I have another spread sheet that lists the folks that ARE currently working. I'm trying to see if there is a way to compare the two sheets, via a formula, that will be able to identify when the first name, last name, company name, and skill description are the same and then have those identified deleted from the first sheet.

Reference To Sheet Number Rather Than Sheet Name?

Feb 17, 2014

To get the content of cells in other sheets of the workbook you refer to the 'Name' of the sheet and write e.g.:

[Code] ....

However, I need to refer to the '(Name)' of the sheet rather than the 'Name', i.e. 'Sheet1' rather than 'Fruit', and I would like to do it in a formula not using VBA.

Sum A Reference Off Another Sheet

Mar 31, 2009

I am using a sumif function that will sum a reference off another sheet.
I want to use a cell in the current sheet(where the formula exist) to reference the target sheet.
Is this possible.

For instance:
I believe you have to use indirect for to have formula reference a sheet name
I have two sheets, "Win" & "Lose"
On "Win" sheet I have this function =sumif(indirect(J180)G1:G20,"room",E1:E20)
On cell J180 of "Win" tab will be "Lose". I am trying to have the formula reference J180 as part of the function and have it sum anything in the "Lose" tab that has the word "room" in it.

How To Reference Tables On Another Sheet

May 11, 2014

How do you reference a table on another sheet so that when you sort that original table it doesn't change the reference you made on that other sheet.

i know how to do this when i am referencing a cell. for instance if i am referencing a cell on sheet 5 and that comes out to something like =Sheet5!B2, i know that when i sort the data differently in sheet 5, that reference will know to change to =Sheet5!B18 or where ever that original reference ends up in this new sorting. but if I do =Table5[2] or something, and i sort that table differently, the reference will change to the new data in that cell and will not follow old reference through the new sort.

Reference A Function From A Different Sheet

Nov 6, 2008

I have a the following function: =INDIRECT(ADDRESS(SUMPRODUCT((F35:G45=K40)*ROW(F35:G45))-21,SUMPRODUCT((F35:G45=K40)*COLUMN(F35:G45))))

I'm trying to put the get the value of it from a different Sheet.
say this function is in Sheet1 and I wish to place the equation in Sheet3 - what should I change? I tried INDIRECT(ADDRESS(SUMPRODUCT((Sheet1!F35:G45=K40)...
nothing works.

what the function does? there are 2 tables. table 1 has values and table 2 has values as well. K40 is the user input --it reflects the number in table2 and the return value is the 'reference' in table1. for example, if table2 in F41 has the number 54 and the reference for it in table1 is $344, when the user types 54 in K40 the returned result in the function will be $344

Input Box With Reference To Sheet Name

Feb 19, 2009

I have attached my workbook. What I would like to do is to have an input box to where you input the Material, Gauge, and Size and then have it return the rest of the values on Sheet 1. The material is listed as the worksheet name and the other information is inside that sheet. For ex... I would enter in Stainless, 7, 48x120 and it would give me the rest on sheet 1. I am totally lost, I have tried several different things but am coming up with nothing.

Reference Previous Sheet

Oct 5, 2005

I've found on this newsgroup a function to get the previous sheet
name

Function PrevSheet()
On Error GoTo EndFunction
Application.Volatile True
PrevSheet = Application.Caller.Worksheet.Previous.Name
Exit Function
EndFunction:
With Application.Caller.Parent.Parent.Worksheets
PrevSheet = .Item(.Count).Name
End With
End Function

when i put =PrevSheet() i get the previous sheets name

What i want to be able to do is use this in place of directly
referencing the sheet name in my code as follows...
=IF(G4-J4<0,G4-J4,G4-J4)+'Week 1'!H4
So i want to be able to replace Week 1 with PrevSheet but i've tried
and falied on this. eg...

=IF(G4-J4<0,G4-J4,G4-J4)+PrevSheet()!H4
Could someone show me the correct syntax for this.

How To Use List As Sheet Name Reference

Oct 1, 2011

In the following example the costs for each FGI SKU are on detail cost build sheets each named simply 600001, 600002, etc.

To add a summary I simply list all the SKU's on a summary worksheet and reference each detail sheet. The problem is with large numbers of SKU's it gets clumsy having to create a reference for each sheet.

Is there a way to have the formula in the cost column reference the detail sheet based on the value in the FGI SKU column?

FGI SKUCost60000111.34 60000211.34 60000311.34 60000411.34 60000511.34

So to reference the cost for the 600002 SKU instead of this...

=+'600002'!$E$37

I would like this...

=+'value in cell with 600002 in it'!$E$7

Sheet Reference In Formula?

Jul 30, 2014

I have this formula (which will soon be much more complex...):

=COUNTIF('dt-a'!C2:C194,'what they want for each teacher'!D1)

I would like to be able to replace the sheet names with a reference to a cell which contains the sheet names.

This is so that a user can enter the sheet name in a cell without having to modify the formulae, break the formulae, and then come running to me ranting about things not working and how computers never work properly.

Copying From Another Sheet Using Reference

Jun 29, 2006

On sheet1 I have a list with some employee numbers and other training data. On sheet2 I have a complete list of employee numbers along with the address details.
On sheet1 I have a cell using the MATCH formula to pick up the column reference for the address from Sheet2. What I would like to do is use a macro that looks at the column reference in sheet1 and then copies the details from that reference in sheet2 and pastes back to sheet1. The following is what I have tried, but it just doesn't want to work:

Sub selectrange()
Set ws = Worksheets("Sheet1")
Set wl = Worksheets("ListEmployeeContact")
ws.Select
ws.Cells(2, 1).Select
wl.Select
wl.Range(ws.Cells(4, 11), Cells(5, 26)).Copy
ws.Select
ws.Cells(2, 1).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(2, 12).PasteSpecial
End Sub

Macro For Dynamic Sheet Name Reference?

Jun 23, 2012

I've got the following code:

VB:
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Worksheets("WildCard").Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True

I'd like the "WildCard" to pull from a value in a cell whereby I can run a button macro that, when pushed, deletes the tab/worksheet named "WildCard". For instance, if I wanted to delete "Sheet3" I would type "Sheet3" into, say, cell C3 and then press the button to run the macro and "Sheet3" would be deleted. How to I refer the macro to cell C3? I currently have a macro that inserts/names a sheet based upon a cell reference and macro button. I'd like one that can delete in the same way.

Cell Reference Or Defined Name For A Sheet

Jan 13, 2009

I'd like to be able to refer to a cell or local scope defined name within my sheet that references another sheet, or accomplish the same functionality in some way.

For example, if I have a sheet MyInformation and then another sheet MyPrintedInformation, where the printed information sheet shows MyInformation in a more printer-friendly format, I might have this in MyPrintedInformation:

a cell or defined name that says (this doesn't work, but just as an example):
let's call the named variable TheSheetToPrint
='MyInformation'. Then from within MyPrintedInformation all of my references look like this

Some cell :

=TheSheetToPrint!A2

Cell Reference To Previous Sheet?

Jan 13, 2011

We have a sizeable Excel workbook that contains many worksheets for various things, everything works smoothly except for one minor niggle.

I am looking for a formula that references to a cell on a previous worksheet, the worksheet could be named anything (eg A1, B, 2, 3.4, etc). Then to add 1, ideally the first worksheet inserted must equal, say, 0 BUT can reference the sheet previous as this is a constant; so something along the lines of...

Cell A1 =magic formula
Cell A2 =A1+1

This is to get a vlookup to work consistently.

OR another option is, for the worksheet to reference an already populated worksheet and read down a table by adding one to reference the cells. Eg first sheet reads ='schedule'!A13, the next sheet added would read A14 then A15 etc...

OR a worksheet (like page numbers) count into a cell onto each worksheet inserted, eg on worksheet 6 in cell A1 the number 6 would be inserted then worksheet 7 would have 7 inserted into A1 etc..
