I have a Google Sheet file with different sheets (e.g. "2018", "2019", "January_2018", "February_2018" and so on). In the sheet "2018", cell A1 is contains "January_2018", B2 contains "February_2018" etc.
I now want to include a formula in the cell "2018" A2 of that simply displays the value of cell A100 in the sheet with the name of cell "2018" A1 (in this case "January_2018").
The formula currently looks like this: ("2018" A2:) =January_2018!$A$100
- the only problem is that I don't want to manually replace the "January_2018" with "February_2018" etc.
It should look something like - this is not working, otherwise I wouldn't ask this! - =TEXT(A$1)!$A$100
. But I can't get it to work.
N.B.: I tried the INDIRECT
-function but it doesn't do the trick - either because it's not the right formula, which I suspect, or because I didn't use it properly. I appreciate being pointed in the right direction. All the best and many thanks!
