I researched that you can use indirect and concatenate to come up with the worksheet name you are trying to reference but I can't get it right....here is the formula I need adjusted

=VLOOKUP(T20,'OKC08-08-11'!$A$32:$B$37,2,FALSE)

Where OKC08-08-11 is will change daily as I create a new copy of that sheet everyday with updated information. I will rename that tab OKC08-09-11, etc. I want to reference that sheet with

concatenate("OKC",p3)

where p3 =text(today(),"mm-dd-yy")

Any help with the vlookup above would be appreciated
 

Excel Facts

Copy PDF to Excel
Select data in PDF. Paste to Microsoft Word. Copy from Word and paste to Excel.
Try

=VLOOKUP(T20,INDIRECT("'OKC" & TEXT(TODAY(),"mm-dd-yy") & "'!$A$32:$B$37"),2,FALSE)


Hope that helps.
