Default Using a Text Cell to Reference a Worksheet Name

In your summary sheet,

Assuming the sheetnames are listed in A2 down, eg: Sheet2, Sheet3, etc,
with the ranges to be summed listed in B1 across, eg: A2:A10, B2:B100, etc
you could place this in B2:
=SUM(INDIRECT("'"&$A2&"'!"&B$1))
then simply copy across and fill down to populate the table

How can I use the INDIRECT formula to return the sum of specific cells in a
data worksheet. My summary worksheet has a cell that requires the sum of the
same 4 cells in each corresponding data worksheet. Any tips on modifying to
make it work?
