Formula X = Row Number 1
Formula Y = Column Number 2

I put these togather(X&Y) and get 12. What I want to do is make it look at R1C2. How do I do this?

Do you mean:

=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(1,2))

Yes that dose it...Now if I am on Sheet1 and want the range to look at Sheet2 what would I need to do. Right now it is looking at the current sheet the formula is in.

Thanks for the Help,

=INDIRECT("Sheet2!"&ADDRESS(1,2))

You may even have Sheet2 in a cell, say, E1 as name, then use:

=INDIRECT(E1&"!"&ADDRESS(1,2))
