Question

I have a VBA code which one of the line looks like this

analysisSheet.Cells(i, tempCell).FormulaR1C1 =
“=AVERAGE(‘Data1’!R[-2]C[-7])”

I want to be able to change ‘Data1’ sheet so that user can dynamically choose the sheet he/she wants to analyze. For example, if user chooses ‘Data2″ Then the code will run like this.

analysisSheet.Cells(i, tempCell).FormulaR1C1 =
“=AVERAGE(‘Data2’!R[-2]C[-7])”

I tried creating string variable and putting that in, but it didn’t work.

Does anyone have any idea?
Thank you in advance.

You should be able to use a string variable, e.g., SheetName, as you described:

Dim SheetName As String
SheetName = "Data3"
analysisSheet.Cells(i, tempCell).FormulaR1C1 = "=AVERAGE('" & SheetName & "'!R[-2]C[-7])"
