How can we formular a dynamic cell? i.e. =B2 as ="B"&"2"??

[Guest]

Here is what I would like to have:

A B

1 B
2 10

Setup a value 'B' in cell A1 and hope to get B2 value "10" in cell A2 -
thought that using ="A1"&2 in cell A2 will work but didn't.....

=INDIRECT(A1&ROW())

If I understand your question correctly, A2 should contain the following

=INDIRECT(A1&2)

have a look in HELP index for INDIRECT

How did that happen? I looked earlier and yours was the only response. Now I
look, and my is time-stamped earlier than yours. I have noticed that
Mangesh's all get at the top of the list, regardless of whether he is first
responder or not, now it is happening to me

Bob -

Must be your newsreader. I'm able to use only the Microsoft web interface
while at the office. In that view, your post shows up at 10:30, lower on the
screen than mine at 10:26.
