Default Referring to multiple worksheets via a variable

I have a workbook that imports a number of text files from a website, each
file onto a different worksheet, starting at worksheet 4. Then I need it to
do a "text to columns" on cells A9-A11. Then I need the results of B9-11
stored in Cx-Ex, where x is the worksheet number. It should look *SOMETHING*
like this (please help me with the commands and my errors, my comments using
the ' (single quote, I believe that is the "ignore" sign in VB, right?):





x=4
Do until x=41 '(if the last worksheet is 40, correct?)

Sub Breakup() '(this is the code to do it on the current worksheet, again
I need to do this on multiple worksheets)

Range("A8").Select
Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("A8"), DataType:=xlDelimited, _
TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False,
Tab:=True, _
Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=True, OtherChar _
:=":", FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, 1), Array(2, 1)),
TrailingMinusNumbers:=True
Range("A9").Select
Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("A9"), DataType:=xlDelimited, _
TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False,
Tab:=True, _
Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=True, OtherChar _
:=":", FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, 1), Array(2, 1)),
TrailingMinusNumbers:=True
Range("A10").Select
Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("A10"),
DataType:=xlDelimited, _
TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False,
Tab:=True, _
Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=True, OtherChar _
:=":", FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, 1), Array(2, 1)),
TrailingMinusNumbers:=True
Range("A11").Select
Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("A11"),
DataType:=xlDelimited, _
TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False,
Tab:=True, _
Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=True, OtherChar _
:=":", FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, 1), Array(2, 1)),
TrailingMinusNumbers:=True
End Sub

If $B8 = 1 (if the value in B8 on that worksheet is 1)
Then '(this is I believe the code to get the values from Cells B9-11 on
worksheet4 and place them in cells C4-E4 on worksheet1)
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Range("C4").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Sheet4!R[5]C[-1]" 'I need something similar
to Sheet(x)!R[5]C[-1]" ??
Range("D4").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Sheet4!R[6]C[-2]"
Range("D5").Select

Else

x=x+1
Loop




Again, thanks to all who can help. Feel free to email me at
if you think it would be easier to assist me with
this outside the forum (I may have more questions).
