Sorry this is such a dumb example hahaha, but does anyone know how to do an index match formula utilizing indirect as well so you don’t have to write 3 different formulas for each separate tab?

=INDEX(INDIRECT(c_cell&"!range"),MATCH(criteria,criteria_list,0),MATCH(criteria2,criteria2_list,0))

Remember that you need the "!" right before the range (e.g.; "!A1:Z100") and need to keep the quotes

Where:
c_cell = your cells in column C (the 1,2,3 which is THE NAME OF THE SHEET you're looking)
criteria = your row criteria (as an example, the cell containing "cat")
criteria_list = your row criteria list (in this example, the range with "cat,dog,fish" - in excel terms D5:D7
criteria2 = your column criteria (e.g. "red")
criteria2_list = your column criteria (e.g., E4:G4)

Great question..

To set this up, I believe that you will need to structure your file so that the tabs have a standard naming convention except for the characters that you want to reference with the indirect (e.g., Region1,Region2, or RegionABC, RegionBCD, etc.) then indirect on the alphanumeric coding of the tab name in your formula.

Other than that, index match should be same otherwise

Try this to get Red Cat in cell E5

You can, but your ranges on each tab will have to be the same. Another method would be to name the tables on each tab and indirect to reference by table name and you wouldn’t need tab names
You’ll need an indirect within the index and the match

Thanks all!!
