I am using the following formula below that works fine however I would like
to modify it such that rather than tell it to go to worksheet 1401
(INDEX('[0910-1400-WB-Actual.xlsx]1401'!$D$11:$Q$135) I would like it to say
look for the any sheet in the workbook using a reference say B1.

Note: in B1: b12 say I would list all the tabs in the workbook.. Is this
possible

thanks

Wherever you have this in your formula:

'[0910-1400-WB-Actual.xlsx]1401'!

you would need to change it to:

INDIRECT("'[0910-1400-WB-Actual.xlsx]"&B1&"'!

and at the end of each address range you will need to add:

")

So, for example, the following:

INDEX('[0910-1400-WB-Actual.xlsx]1401'!$D$11:$Q$135,MATCH...etc

will become:

INDEX(INDIRECT("'[0910-1400-WB-Actual.xlsx]"&B1&"'!$D$11:$Q
$135"),MATCH...etc

and then you can just put a sheet name in B1 and the formula will look
at that sheet. If the formula is on row 1 then you can copy it down to
row 12 to pick up each sheet name on each row.

Hope this helps.

I should have pointed out that INDIRECT will only work with open
workbooks (which your formula implies that you have, as you do not
show the full path), but if the file 0910-1400-WB-Actual.xlsx is
closed then you will get errors.

Trying to avoid indirect as opening the source files is not feasible.

Thanks

Well, if the files are closed then your formula will need to show the
full path in addition to the filenames.
