How do I return the contents of a cell that I have the address for (e.g. "A2")?

I have cell addresses in one worksheet formatted as text strings (e.g. "A1", "B22", "F332") and I'd like to return the contents of those particular cell addresses from another worksheet. How do I do this?

Use INDIRECT():

=INDIRECT("Sheet3!" & A1)

enter image description here

This gets the contents of cell A1 from Sheet3.

If your sheetname includes blanks, encapsulate it in single quotes.
