    question on how to use cell address' to call up sheet name in a formula

    If I have 12 sheets in a workbook (Jan, Feb,etc..)
    can I have those names in specific cells (A1,B1,etc..)
    and call them out in a formula as the cell name as opposed to the actual name?
    like A1!C4:C100
    instead of Jan!C4:C100

    ??

    You can, and to do it use the INDIRECT function

    =INDIRECT(A1&"!"&"C4:C100")
    Rule 1: Never merge cells
    Rule 2: See rule 1
