I am usually very good at figuring these out but cannot for the life of me
get this one.
First off I am using Excel 2003 on a XP Pro machine.
I have a workbook with 30 sheets in it. 23 of these are for working days of
the month. They are named in the following fashion:
May01, May04, May 05, etc.
I have another sheet that I want to have calculate the totals from each
daily page. I also want this to be dynamic in the formulas so when the next
month comes around I do not have to spend a great deal of time setting up the
formulas. I have the same daily sheet names in a header (row B) on my totals
sheet. So I have tried to write a formula that is something like this:
=B2!L34
B2 currently equals May01 and L34 is the place on the daily sheets that
contains the total I need to place on my totals sheet.
I found a function called INDIRECT that is supposed to take a cell's text
and use it as a part of the formula, but keep getting REF when I try this
out.
This all seems to be just a syntax error and I am overlooking it. PLEASE HELP.
