Hi folks.
Hoping for some guidance please? I have a WB I use to chart works holidays, easy peasy, it consists of 13 sheets, 1 for each month and a final one I use to display current week plus next 2 weeks, always starting from the current weeks Monday. The 13th sheet is where my question lies. Currently, I manually copy/paste current weeks data plus subsequent 2 weeks from the individual sheets into the display sheet. I then have a PPT on an office screen, linked to this display sheet, displaying the current 3 week period so we can all see upcoming holidays for planning. The individual monthly sheets are in the same format as the display sheet, shown below. What might be my best route to have this sheet auto populate? Would it be a lookup from the 3 week display start date, or maybe an index/match scenario, or something else I'm not aware of? Would formula or VBA be the best route?
Thanks for looking

This is a section of display sheet

B1B1=TODAY()
C2C2=B1-WEEKDAY(B1,2)+1
D2:W2D2=C2+1
C3:W3C3=C2
B27:B31B27=January!B27



And this is a section of a monthly sheet

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
OK, probably a bad move.... but I've been thinking.
Each sheet name is the relevant month, so I can create a cell on my display sheet that will contain the required month name by formatting as date "mmmmmmmmm", and then a 2nd cell from that via =TEXT that will display that month/sheet name as text. Then I can place a simple formula in each cell something like =INDIRECT($K$2&"!C3") where K2 is the cell with the required month as text, this will then select the correct sheet and cell range from that.
Problem though :( I can't drag that formula down as the C3 will stay as a constant. Is there a way around that to make the C3 element of that formula draggable?
