INDIRECT (ReferenceText,ReferenceStyle)
- where, represents reference to a cell as a text string
- is a logical value that specifies the type of reference in
- INDIRECT(), returns a reference indicated by a text value.
represents reference to a cell as a text string
is a logical value that specifies the type of reference in Description
INDIRECT(ReferenceText, ReferenceStyle)
- INDIRECTION is the ability to reference something using a name, reference, or container instead of value itself.
- can be a reference to a cell as text string, A1 style reference, and R1C1 style reference or a name defined as a reference.
- If is invalid, Calci displays an #NULL error message.
- If refers to a cell outside the column limit, Calci displays #N/A error message.
- can be a logical value TRUE or FALSE. If omitted, Calci assumes it to be TRUE.
- If is TRUE, Calci interprets as A1-style reference.
- If is FALSE, Calci interprets as R1C1-style reference.
Examples
Consider the following table with Columns A as reference cell to actual data and Column B as data for INDIRECT() function.
| Reference Data | Data | |
| B2 | 5667 | |
| B3 | SMITH | |
| ZCUBES | Calci | |
| 5 | 60 | |
=INDIRECT($A$2) : Reads the reference value in A2 that points to B2. Displays the data value in cell B2 5667 as output.
=INDIRECT(A3,TRUE) : Reads the reference value in A3 that points to B3. Displays the data value in cell B3 SMITH as output.
=INDIRECT($A$4, TRUE) : Reference cell points to ZCUBES. As there is no cell defined as ZCUBES, Calci displays empty cell as output.
=INDIRECT("B"&A5) : Reads 5th cell in column B. Displays 60 as output.
