Hi,
I have a budget table. For each month there is a formula to get data from another sheet. But the text is "fixed", so for every post (row) I manually have to change this text in all 12 months (colums).
If I use a column to specify witch text I want in the formula and rewrite only the part of the formula that specify what text to look for, then my intention is that I only need to change the text in the new column to change it in every month column. Is that possible?
My formula is (hereunder) and it's the bold text that I want to change to get text from the extra column.
SUMIF(expected.expenses[text];"Health insurance";expected.expenses[July])
I have already tried the obvious way and just write C3, but then Excel can't find the matching text in the expected.expenses sheet...
