reference sheet name from cell value
Hello
There was a similar questions posted I think but it was so vague I really couldn't understand what was actually be asked or the answer provided. So please do excuse me if this has been answered already.
I want to use a cell value to reference a sheet. Column “B” contains item_code that matches a sheet name for example TILKGW68
Price column for example contains =TILKGW68.F2.
Challenge: Instead of having to spell out each sheet name in the Price column I would like to reference column B.
I have a simple example ODS file to attach but it seems I am too new and need 3 points before i can upload. Since I am new, I don't know what these points are or how to acquire them. Hopefully I have included enough detail above to explain my objective.
Thank you
Sorry. I did not understand. I cannot imagine how to get a reference from a value. Do you want to extract the sheetname from the reference occurring in the formula in, say, cell B2 of the (different) current sheet? What do you mean by "spell out" in the context? I will try an answer assuming I guessed right.
I am really wondering for what reason you think to need what you asked for?
Thanks for your comment. To satisfy your curiosity, the first sheet is a product list that a copy would be saved as a csv file for my web site. The other sheets are volume discount pricing structure, one sheet per product. Sheets are named with the product code such as TILKGW68 in my example. Cell F2 in every sheet is the single or default price that needs to be in my csv file for my site. If I do any price structure updates, I would like the default price to automatically keep current.
By using the column B value in the first sheet in the call for the price, then I can simply copy/paste this call to every price cell in that column instead of having to type it in for each item.
