Dynamic cell reference in another worksheet by referencing string in another cell as column

338 Views Asked by At

Looking for a way to formulate a very typical =([worksheet]![column][row]) type formula where only the [column] is dynamic. And by dynamic I am thinking of reading the string of another cell:

  • For instance let say, in worksheet_1 cell A1 contains the letter "B"
  • How should I construct a my formula that would have a cell to return the value of =([worksheet that is not "worksheet_1"!B[row]), where the [column] section is referencing the cell A1 (sort of reading the string "B" and getting it as the column)

I am currently working on some financial modeling where I am extracting the numbers from a sheet with only annual numbers/ outlay to a sheet where it is shown in (quarter+annual) in consecutive column. So obviously my idea is to work around the simple "dragging" the formula, give the outlay is not align (where one is annual-annual-annual ... and the other is quarter-quarter-quarter-quarter-annual...).

Greatly appreciate any help!
