An exclamation mark. To refer to cell B56 on Sheet3 you would do this:
=Sheet3!B56
A cell reference points to a specific cell in a spreadsheet using its row and column labels (ex: A1). A worksheet reference refers to a different worksheet within the same spreadsheet (ex: Sheet2!A1), allowing you to pull data from or perform calculations with cells in another sheet.
The Name box.
An absolute reference. An absolute cell reference.
The type of cell reference that refers to a fixed position in a worksheet is called an "absolute cell reference." It is denoted by a dollar sign ($) before the column letter and row number (e.g., $A$1). This means that when you copy a formula containing an absolute reference to another cell, the reference remains constant and does not change based on the new location.
A 3d reference refers to a worksheet, a column and a row, to identify a particular cell in a workbook. The following is a simple example, where the worksheet name is in the reference and is followed by an exclamation mark before the cell address: =Sheet1!A3 * 10
If you have a value in cell A1 on Sheet1 and you want it to appear in Sheet 2, you use a formula. So in a cell on Sheet2 type: =Sheet1!A1 Sheet1 is the sheet name. The exclamation mark separates it from the cell reference. Now whatever is in the cell A1 on Sheet1 will appear in the cell with that formula.
color coding
Columns are referenced by letters and rows by numbers, so the answer is D3.
Cells are the fundamental element of a worksheet. All formulas are put into them. Most functions and formulas will reference cells on the worksheet. So cells are extremely important in Excel. Without them, you do not have a worksheet.
I am not sure what you are asking, since you link cells, and not tabs. But, if you want to know how to link to a cell on another worksheet, add the name of the worksheet with an apostrophe (!) before the cell name. If you want to reference cell B13 from Sheet1 on Sheet2, enter the following formula on Sheet2: =Sheet1!B13.
The cell reference area below the ribbon is called the Name Box in Excel. It displays the address or name of the currently selected cell in the worksheet. It can also be used to navigate to specific cells by typing in the cell reference directly.
You use the name of the worksheet, followed by the exclamation mark, followed by the cell you want. So if you are on Sheet2 and want to reference the cell C20 on Sheet1 your reference would be: Sheet1!C20
