REFERENCES TO OTHER WORKSHEETS
You can refer to cells in other worksheets within the same workbook just as easily as you refer to cells in
the same worksheet. For example, to enter a reference to cell A2 in Sheet2 into cell A1 in Sheet1, do this:
Select cell A1 in Sheet1, Click on cell A2. and then Select cell A1, and you will see that it
and type an equal (=) sign. 1 press Enter key. 3 contains the formula = Sheet2! A2.
2
Click the Sheet2 tab.
The exclamation point separates the worksheet portion of the reference from the cell portion.
Hintbot
To switch between making the column, the row, or nothing ‘Absolute’:
press the F4 key repeatedly over a reference (cell).
