In our example, we want to reference cell E14 on the Menu Order worksheet. This will allow us to use the exact same value on two different worksheets without rewriting the formula or copying data between worksheets. In our example below, we'll refer to a cell with a calculated value between two worksheets. Using data on 29 stocks in the Kenyan stock market we compare the relative performance of the two models using performance measures such as the Sharpe Ratio. For example, if you wanted to reference cell A1 on a worksheet named July Budget, its cell reference would be 'July Budget'!A1. Note that if a worksheet name contains a space, you will need to include single quotation marks ( ' ') around the name. This is an easy way to quickly insert an absolute reference. For example, if you wanted to reference cell A1 on Sheet1, its cell reference would be Sheet1!A1. When writing a formula in Microsoft Excel, you can press the F4 key on your keyboard to switch between relative, absolute, and mixed cell references, as shown in the video below.
To do this, you'll simply need to begin the cell reference with the worksheet name followed by an exclamation point ( !).
Most spreadsheet programs allow you to refer to any cell on any worksheet, which can be especially helpful if you want to reference a specific value from one worksheet to another. Using cell references with multiple worksheets
