Cell reference formula
How can I create a formula from two columns that will result in pulling in the value from a third column?
Column1 (text) = Column4
Column2 (text) = 3
Column3 (date) = Column1 + Column2
Ideal Column3 result = [Column4]3
Please let me know if I can clarify anything, it is a little confusing.
Thanks

Hi Ian! While you can concatenate text from the two cells, the result will be a text value - not a cell reference. There may be a workaround we could suggest if you gave us information on your use case for wanting this functionality.
