Referencing Sheet Tabs
Is there a way to use the "value" of a name in a drop-down list to reference a sheet tab name in a formula? A1 has a drop down list. When a name (Bob's Sales) is selected from the drop down list, B1 shows the value of cell D5 from sheet "Bob's Sales".

Referencing Another Sheet In Same Workbook
I have two sheets in the same work book and I want to pull values through from one to the other. So its a simple =Sheet2!B45 or whatever yeah? But no! What Excel 2007 does when I hit enter is to swap the Sheet!2 bit for "C:documents and Settingsmy documentsspreadsheetsmyworkbook!Sheet2!B45" or some such. Why the hell does it do that and how can I stop it.

Referencing Cells In Another Sheet
I need assistance referencing cells in other sheets. I have a summary tab which I would have each refenced sheet listed (named for the activity being billed). In a separate cell in the summary tab, I want to bring back the value of the total amount billed for that activity. The total value is in the same cell of each sheet, as all invoice tabs needing to be referenced are identical in layout. There is one hitch to this, the sheets referenced have not yet been created (that would be too too easy), and the activity list in the summary sheet has place holder names that will change when the activity being billed is defined (hence prompting the biller to create the sheet to be referenced).

Formula Referencing Previous Sheet
After a formula to copy the contents of a cell in the previous sheet in a workbook, so that if I was to copy the last sheet in a workbook the formula would automatically reference the cell from the copied worksheet and so on if I copied tht one. Hope this makes sense I have a lot of formulas referencing the previous sheet and everytime I copy this sheet to create a new sheet I have to change the sheet number in the formulas. eg, in sheet 8 this formula get info from sheet 7 cel J30 ='7'!J30 when i copy the sheet to create a new one (Sheet 9) I would like the new formula to automatically be ='8'!J30.

Vlookup - Referencing Sheet Index
I am trying to find out whether it is possible to reference to a sheet index number, instead of sheet name, in a VLOOKUP formula. For instance, normally I would write: VLOOKUP(A1,'ExampleSheet'!A1:B10,2,False) (I hope got the translation to English language Excel correct) Let's say that the sheet index of Examplesheet is 2 (at least it is 2 the way VBA sees it). Is there a way I could reference sheet number 2 in the VLOOKUP formula, instead of its name? My sheet names vary, but the formula should look in the same area, regardless of name.

Referencing Cells Dependent On Sheet Name
I have a workbook that has a number of sheets with various project stages and dates on them. These details are arranged in small tables displayed vertically down the page. Each worksheet's name is the project code - e.g. 30033_99 I have now been asked to create an overview page that displays all these stages and dates on one page. What I'm trying to do is get Excel to look at the column with the project code and then pull information from the worksheet with that name.

Referencing Sheet Code Names By Variable
I have a set of worksheets (Sheet31 through Sheet49 by codename) produced by a machine in the lab. I want to create a summary sheet that references cells in those worksheets. Rather than go through the annoyance of doing this manually 40+ times I'm working on creating a macro to populate the summary sheet for me. This is what I have so far For J = 31 To 49 ResultSht = SheetJ.Name Sheet1.Activate ActiveSheet.Range("A4").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select It hangs up on the "SheetJ.Name" however. My objective is to be using the object SheetJ, where the object SheetJ is the codename of the results sheet I'm trying to reference (for example, in the first pass through the loop it would be Sheet31). Could someone point out my mistake in this object reference?

#REF! Error Referencing Worksheet After Importing Sheet
I have a template i'm making that is full of formula references to sheets not yet in existance in the workbook. what i want to happen is this: My code imports data files, renames the tabs to 1, 2, 3, 4... The formulas i already have are set in the CONCATENATED tab.... an example of such a formula is: ='1'!$P2. so this should work, and yet it doesn't. the sheet is imported as it should be, the tab is renamed to 1, and yet the CONCATENATED sheet still shows #REF for the cell value. if i click in the cell, click in the text bar and enter out, the formula updates. there apparently is no option that i KNOW OF (although i'm sure there is something out there that does...) that will update this without me entering into the text bar and entering out. Question: how do i manually update all references once the sheets to those references have been imported?

Referencing Selected Tabs To Print Selection & Update Table Of Contents Sheet
I searched but didn't find exactly what I needed. I have a workbook with 31 sheets. It is a price guide with each category on a separate worksheet. I figured out how to list the sheets on a separate tab. What my client wants is the ability to: 1. select certain categories for printing, the ToC, Cover and backcover pages have to print in every case 2. the ToC has to change depending on the sheets selected. I'd rather write some code and give him an an easy command button rather then teaching him how to select non-concurrent sheets and printing only active sheets. What I'm really stuck on is the updating of the ToC with active sheets only (category and starting page which changes depending on pages selected).

Lets say the drop down appears in B2, and I have got a formula called Test1(B2). However this retunrs me an error. The contents of B2 is in string format. - Test1(B2) does not work - Test1(a) does work (assuming a is what B2 shows) I would like to know how I can reference B2 as an argument in Formula, so it does not show error.

Using For Loops When Referencing
First of all, I'm completely new to both this forum and VBA. I have just done a programming course in java before. I hope you will forgive me if this have already been posted. No to my problem. I am tryring to use different projected values to project other subparts of those units, which is done in the sheet mean needed weekly. Tje values are taken from projections. The answer that I get from mean needed weekly should be copied to a third sheet. This is the code that I am using right know, but I cant get the for loop to work (or more exactly to be able to place the "i" in my text without making compilation errors).

Referencing The Name Of A Worksheet
way to reference the name of a worksheet in a cell, or even better, use a cell reference to dictate the name of a worksheet. In other words, I would like to create a new sheet, and set it's name ='Sheet1'!C1 so that if I changed C1, the worksheet would automatically be renamed to whatever is typed in C1. If that is not possible, I would like to have a cell be tied to the name of a given worksheet, so that if I renamed the worksheet, the cell would change accordingly...similar to the &[Tab] function used in headers/footers.

Vertical Referencing
Trying to build a form that helps assemble parts a pieces based on filling out just a small section of information. Here just a short example: Tower Type: Type 1 Coax Length: 100 ft Based on the above criteria, I am going to have a line item that auto fills specific parts and pieces based on the answer. The main problem I have is the coax length answer will fit within several ranges and I need a cell to be able to identify and autofill ALL of those ranges. Specifically, if the coax length is between 0 and 100, I need to autofill the below cell with Coax 1, from 101 to 200 Coax 2, and so on and so forth. Lets say I have 5 ranges of "greater than, less than" values. how do I make a formula that will consider all of these in a VLOOKUP scenario? If I haven't asked the right questions, or phrased them incorrectly, please let me know....I'm not the most excel experienced person...hence my visit to this forum!

Cross-referencing Lookup?
I am trying to match a person's name in the A column (A3) with particular course requirements in Columns B through to BB (ie. B2). Not every person will have taken every course. I have the master list of data on another worksheet with 4 columns of data: A-Student Name, B-Course Name, C-Final Mark, D-Additional Notes. What I would like to do is have Excel find the student name on sheet one as well as each of the courses listed from B-BB and check sheet two (master data) to find if the student name and course name appear on the same line. If it does I want it to return the value in column C (the final Mark). I thought that I could do this with VLOOKUP but it only works with the left most column correct? I saw something about a VLOOKUP2 but couldn't find that option in Excel 2007.

Blank Cell Referencing
On the spreadsheet Im creating I am using cell referencing. The user will input data into the blank cells, and cell referencing will put them into another table. Then I add these using an IF(OR(ISBLANK formula. However, the empty cells come through as 0's rather than a blank cell. As they're coming through as 0's, they're being calculated into the formula, and this is causing problems in my main table. Is there a formula I can use to ensure that the empty cells being copied over do not give off any other value? I tried to use a few different IF formulas to only let specific data go through, but it didn't work. I tried to have the blank cells produce a letter so that they wouldn't be calculted in the formula, but letters are also counted as measured values.

Referencing A Dynamic Range
1. I have a worksheet with subtotal and total row above all columns I currently use SUBTOTAL(9, A6:A6000) and SUM(A6:A6000) however the no of rows is dynamic based on imported data so I want the range end (i.e. A6000) to also be dynamic i.e. refer to the last cell with data in the column. Something like SUBTOTAL(9, A6:LastCell in A) 2. I also use SUMPRODUCT to do calculations e.g. SUMPRODUCT (($B$6:$B$6000 = "ABC") * ($A$6:$A$6000)) again how can I make the sumproduct dynamically use all rows to the last active row. 3. I have tried just setting the second part of the range reference to a very large number but am worried that this slows down the calculation. Does it? e.g. SUMPRODUCT(($B$6:$B$100000 = "ABC") * ($A$6:$A$100000))

Referencing Images Across Workbooks
I'm trying to get a system setup with a workbook acting as a reference document, sort of read only and on a separate server. Which is then referenced by another "working" workbook, no problem so far other than I want to be able to view/show images from within the main reference workbook in the destination working workbook. I want this to happen when a user inputs a code, it should populate a series of cells including showing a small jpeg of said item. For example if I use the camera function it doesn't do as desired when the main reference workbook is not currently open. I was hoping to avoid macro's or vb if at all possible. I'm a bit of an Excel novice though have limited programming experience in other languages / applications. I'm also a complete novice when it comes to forums and threads etc. so excuse me if I mess up protocol at all.

Pausing And Referencing In VBA
I have made 2 macros that run one after the other to perform a certan task. My issue is that I want to run Variants that I have defined in Macro1 In Macro2 but I dont know how to reference them macro 2, or if there in the same module do they recognize the varients anyway??. I'll list the variants defined below; could someone provide me with the proper code to reference the variants form macro1 in macro2. I am also wondering if it would be easier to combine both macros under one macro and simply put a pause in the macro between both section and have a certain command to resume once the user decides to( so it would have to be a user command such as a button). If you think this would be easier could you please provide the code to pause the macro until A button is hit. both these methods woud be useful to me elsewhere as well so if it's not to much to ask could you provide both methods.
