如何从单元格值引用另一个工作表上的单元格

Question

I have an Excel sheet something like the following:

  A  B     C
1 1  cat   4
2 2  dog   4
3 3  bird  2

On another sheet, I want to get the data for a row based on value in a cell, eg if A1 = 2 I want to display the name of the animal for row 2 on a particular cell (in this case, dog )

I'm trying to use =INDIRECT("Sheet1!'"&A1"') but it doesn't work.

Answer 1

I suspect you are using Excel on a Mac and are trying to match a number formatted as a number against a number formatted as text. Try copying A1 from one sheet to the other, then:

=VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!A1:C3,2,FALSE) 

for animal name and change 2 to 3 for number of legs.

Answer 2

怎么样：

=VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!A1:C3,2)
