Topic:
Spreadsheet Software;;
I want to use the contents of a cell to replace the lookup name in a different workbook. Here is an example of what I am attempting:
A B
APC Ref
128
Week_27 =VLOOKUP($A$2,'APC Collections Notices.xlsm'!Week_27,6,FALSE)
Week_28 =VLOOKUP($A$2,'APC Collections Notices.xlsm'!Week_28,6,FALSE)
Week_29 =VLOOKUP($A$2,'APC Collections Notices.xlsm'!Week_29,6,FALSE)
Week_27/28/29 etc in the formulas, refer to named areas in another workbook (APC Collections Notice.xlsm). I would like to replace the week number reference with the variable information in the same row and in column A. I have tried the following, without success:
Week_27 =VLOOKUP($A$2,'APC Collections Notices.xlsm'!A4,6,FALSE)
Week_27 =VLOOKUP($A$2,'APC Collections Notices.xlsm'!INDIRECT(A4),6,FALSE)
Please help if you can.

Hi Duncan
I'm out of time for today and will be working away from very early tomorrow morning until late Friday night, but will make a small version over the weekend to demonstrate my problem.
Thanks anyway, I will be in touch.

So you can create a copy for small-size workbook that can
simulate your issue, in other words, create a simple example
for experts in order to assist you when they understand your
issue. Now what I can do just find the function in the google
for your need for tutorial, for example ,this as follows, since
I could not understand what you need
Indirect() in VBA at http://www.cpearson.com/excel/indirect.htm
OR
To call other cell B1 in other workbook, 'APC Collections Notices.xlsm, at sheet of 'Week_27' at A1 of EEpost.xls at sheet1 such as follows
A1='c: emp['APC Collections Notices.xlsm]week_27!$B$1'
You need to create simple or small-size example file and send us that will be faster to solve your issue
YOu don't need to send us the confident information, but you can similate it as simple example
The second item in vlookup is target table array to be searched in 'APC Collections Notices.xlsm' workbook at variable worksheet, right ? what the range you want from example of A1:A100 ,='c: emp['APC Collections Notices.xlsm]week_27!A1;A100', Right ?

Hi Duncan
In the examples:
A B
1 Ref
2 128
3
4 Week_27 =VLOOKUP($A$2,'APC Collections Notices.xlsm'!A4,6,FALSE)
5 Week_27 =VLOOKUP($A$2,'APC Collections Notices.xlsm'!INDIRECT(A5),6,FALSE)
The information in cell A2 is 128. The formula has to lookup 128, column 6 in a range named Week_27 in the first example and Week_28 in the second example. The named ranges (Week_27 & Week_28) are both in a workbook called APC Collections Notices.xlms. Neither of the above versions work, but if I replace the A4 or A5 variables with the written text of Week_27 or Week_28, they work just fine. The examples are only the first column of many, which I want to copy down without physically having to change the Week_?? references, in each row. The workbook APC Collections Notices.xlms is huge, containing personal and confidential information, so I am unable to copy it to you. Thanks for any light you can shed on this.
