2 workbooks. One called "Cash Flow"; the other called "Budget"

In the workbook Cash Flow, there are different months on each worksheet (January, Feb etc).
Within Budget, there are columns titled Jan, Feb, etc.

I want to pull a specific cell or range of cells within January (Cash Flow) and have it appear under January in the Budget workbook. That's fine. Simple formula. But I want to be able to drag that formula across the page, so that the formula auto advances to the next month. Haven't been successful.

Current formula: =[00525144.XLSX]January!$C$6
If I drag it to the next cell, it simply pulls the same information from January

Sure could use some help.

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
Hi,

Not sure to understand the structure of your worksheet ...

But if in cell B1 you have January ...then February in C1 ...you could test :

Code:
=INDIRECT("[00525144.XLSX]"&B1&"!$C$6")

Hope this will help
