Referencing Another Sheet

Options

Does anyone know a way to reference another sheet so that you can bring information in from one sheet to another? Looking to bring text from one column in a sheet into another sheet and can't figure out a way to do that. In excel you would simply just do "=" and then select the cell on another sheet. I tried using lower or upper and referencing that sheet but it comes back "unparseable".


Here's what I tried:

=LOWER({Template - Life Event Configuration Range 1}1)

    Hi @Jack Carmichael

    I hope you're well and safe!

    You could use cross-sheet formulas combined with either a VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH structure to connect the sheets, and when you update the source sheet, it will reflect on the destination sheet.

    =INDEX({ColumnWithTheValueYouWantToShow}, MATCH(CellThatHaveTheValueToMatch@row,{ColumnWithTheValueToMatchAgainsTheCell}, 0))

    Would that work/help?

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

    Best,
