Use Data, What-If Analysis, Goal Seek to find the correct input cell value to reach a desired result
In VBA or Formula?

all done in excel........

variable is going to be adjusted using another cell reference

example i want the formula to read

A(1+N)

N= number (which can be adjusted)

so if i adjust n = 7

then the cell reference would be A8 = A(1+7)

not sure how to do this in excel

Use INDIRECT.

=INDIRECT("A" & 1+B1)
