Question

I have a worksheet that returns a value from a different sheet in the sameworkbook (=data!C68) which returns a value.

Ina another cell I want to reference the reference in the original cell but increment the row by 1 – (=data!C69). The cells are not next to each other.

Is this possible either with a function or a fromula?

Thanks

Jonathan

Answer 1

Option Explicit
Function GetCellReferenceUsedInFormula(ByVal src As Range) As Range
If src.HasFormula Then
    Set GetCellReferenceUsedInFormula = Evaluate(Mid(src.Formula, 2))
End If
End Function

And use the above function in formula with OFFSET

=OFFSET(GetCellReferenceUsedInFormula(A1),1,0)

This is assuming that cell A1 contains the formula =data!C68.
Please note that the VBA code assumes that the formula is simple (i.e. =somecellreference).
