    Lightbulb Using values from Multiple Sheet

    Guys

    I have a data in different sheet

    example

    sheet 1 = A
    sheet 2 = B
    sheet 3 = C

    In all the three sheets i have a data in cell A1 . i want this data to be reflected on the Main Sheet the sheet in which i want the data of all three sheets to be

    Like in Main sheet

    I have a cell A1 in which value of Sheet A is reflecting
    In Cell A2 i want the value of cell A1 of sheet 2 to be reflecting

    in order to achive this i have to manually given the references of each sheet to that cell in Main sheet .

    Is there any shortcut to achieve this

    i have a large data and each sheet name is different like suppose

    Apple , black , red , blue

    i want to achieve this without doing manual work any suggestions ?

    Apart from this

    I have another question

    When i m working on group sheets , i want to alter the formula which is already present in sheet 1 but when i make alteration in one sheet it dosent alter on the remaining sheet . Unless i erase the entire formula and type the formula again manually

    even i tried copy pasting the same formula on the same cell but still not changes are made . please guide

    For your second question, if you hold ctrl and highlight all the tabs you want to change, the change the info on first sheet, it should alter all the sheets providing the layout is the same.

    i first select the entire sheet then i make alteration

    i m doing this because there are some sheets on which i dont want to make the alteration so first i select my desired sheet and then i play on one sheet

    it dosent change if the formula is already entered in sheet one
    i tried it many times.

    it works only if erase the formula and type the formula again manually

    You will most likely need Indirect() function.

    If you have the sheetnames referenced on the summary sheet, then you can reference those in a formula that can be copied to other cells..

    Please post sample workkbook.
    Where there is a will there are many ways.
