Hey guys, I'm back with another question that's liable to make you old hats roll your eyes.

I've got a drop down (in cel H45) that allows users to select an option (drop down works great thanks to you all). Anyway, I'm trying to set up something that lets me do something akin to "=H45!D7" to reference cell D7 on a different sheet depending on what is in Cell H45 on the main worksheet. I figured on there being a function I could use to call the contents of a specific cell, since the method I was attempting to use didn't work.
Suggestions?

Press F7 to start spell check in Excel. Be careful, by default, Excel does not check Capitalized Werds (whoops)
I'm not quite sure if I understood your question, but how about an IF-statement?

Try this formula:
=INDIRECT("'"&H45&"'!D7")
