Hi, I am trying to use a combination of concantenate to form a reference to a cell range from text i.e =CONCATENATE("BC3:", "BC", TEXT(H54)) which returns BC3:BC7 I am then trying to use INDIRECT to use that text formed cell reference to return for example the sum of that range =SUM(INDIRECT(CONCATENATE("BC3:", "BC", TEXT(H54)) )) but I keep on getting #REF! or #SYNTAX! Is it possible to use text ranges with SC spreadsheet function INDIRECT and can you please provide an example of how I can do this? Regards |

It would be great if you can add this functionality to allow INDIRECT to accept text cell range references? This is not urgent as I only had them in mind for a specific task and there are other work arounds. It would also be great if the change is logged in the SC version change-log which I regularly check to see if there is anything specific worth upgrading for. REgards |

I agree. This would be nice to have. I can create a dynamic range and convert it to text but cannot find a way to work around the INDIRECT limitation of using just a cell reference. Any alternative ways to handle this? for instance MAX(INDIRECT("AK1:AK10")) will not work. I did find a workaround. So nevermind Date Time Of Last Edit: 2016-06-27 17:07:27

We will see if this is not difficult to add.
