    cel content is reference for cel in formula

    Say I have:
    A1 = 27
    A2 = 36
    A3 = 117
    ...
    and
    ...
    M27 = aaa
    ...
    M36 = bbb
    ...
    M117 = ccc


    How to insert in B column formulas that retrives values picked from M column and lines picked from A column values.
    Something like:

    B1 fx = M(A1value) results in => A27
    B2 fx = M(A2value) results in => A36
    B3 fx = M(A3value) results in => A117

    ending with

    B1 = aaa
    B2 = bbb
    B3 = ccc
    ...

    Thanks in advanced.

    In B1:
    =INDEX(M:M, A1)

    ...then copy that down.
