I have identically formatted worksheets named Q12022, Q2022 etc. On a summary sheet I have column headers with the same names. How do I reference the correct worksheet in a sumif formula on the summary sheet?

my formula is:

=sumif('Q32022'!J:J,C4,'Q32022'!H:H)*D4

I want to substitute the content of a cell (k2 for instance) for the worksheet name Q32022.

Many thanks.
 

Excel Facts

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
How about
Excel Formula:
=SUMIF(INDIRECT("'"&K2&"'!J:J"),C4,INDIRECT("'"&K2&"'!H:H"))*D4

Works nicely. I'm not sure I understand what the indirect function is doing but I'll research that.

Thanks again.
