    Indirect will work for that, assuming all the workbooks are open. Commented Feb 26, 2014 at 2:30
  • One of the things I'd like to do is change the name and the month in the master sheet and have it point to the corresponding work sheet. So if I have a worksheet titled "Bob January" and I want to return cell F1 from that worksheet, how would I do it? A1 = Bob B1 = January C1 = A1&" "&B1 D1 = Indirect("C1&!"F1) This is what I was thinking, but I keep getting #REF. Commented Feb 27, 2014 at 14:45
  • To reference a worksheet with a space you need to surround it in single quotes. D1 =INDIRECT("'" & A1 & " " & B1 & "'")` of course you need to complete it with a !A1 or whatever cell to actually reference. Commented Feb 27, 2014 at 15:19
