    If you have absolute references in the link in row 1 you can simply copy and
    past down in row2, 3 and so on. then with Find and Replace you can Replace
    Sheet1 with Sheet2 in the second row and so on.

    How to create a fill down that increments based on the worksheet n

    Not sure if my subject helpeds explain much.

    I have a "register" worksheet, that tabulates all the information found on
    the other worksheets in the database. The register worksheet is called
    "register" and the other worksheets are numbered "1", "2", "3" and so on.

    At the first row of the register worksheet, i have a lot of cells that
    reference off the "1" worksheet. Simple links so i can see all the
    information i want on one screen.
    On the second row of the register, i want the same cell locations, but on
    the second ("2") worksheet, and this continues through. The first column
    contains the worksheet number "1", "2" etc.

    I've hunted around with different fill techniques, and different reference
    techniques but haven't been able to find anything. Hopefully someone out
    there has a better idea than i do. Open to ALL ideas as its is just a new
    spreadsheet.

    Unfortunatly, I will have 1000's of rows, which makes that a lengthy process.
    Appreciate the help though.

    Skot

    You state you have worksheets named 1, 2, 3 and so on.

    Do you mean Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3 or just 1, 2, 3?

    How far does "and so on" stretch?

    Use of the INDIRECT Function is handy for incrementing sheet names in
    formulas.

    e.g.

    Insert a new sheet and name it Namesheet.

    Type your sheet names(other than Summary) in a list from A1:A10 (assuming 10
    sheets)

    =INDIRECT(Namesheet!A1 & "!" & "$A$4")

    Drag/copy this down the column to return contents of A4 from each sheet in the
    list from A1:A10

    Adjust accordingly if your formulas go across rows.

    If sheets are named Sheet1 etc. you can use

    =INDIRECT("Sheet" & ROW() &"!" & "$A$4")

    OR use Column() if across rows.

    Absolutly perfect. Thanks for that. Just used:

    =INDIRECT(A2&"!"&"$B$4") which is essentially what u wrote.

    Thanks a heap again, saved me a mountain of work.

    Re: How to create a fill down that increments based on the workshe

    Gord, Using your formula, can the same principle apply to data from different
    workbooks all having identical worksheets and name ranges. If yes, (1)how
    should
    the formula be and (2) can the information be read from closed workbooks.
    This is a late posting and I shall watch this topic for any responses.
    Thank you,
