Default concatenate an "actionable" formula

I need to create a VLOOKUP that uses a variable for the TABLE ARRAY element
in the formula.

I can create the proper formula but it won't execute the lookup. It begins
with an = sign but it acts like it is only text. How can I take:

=concatenate("=VLOOKUP($B$11,Table" & b31 & ",3,FALSE")) and have the result
perform the lookup?

I've tried using an indirect(b31) but that isn't it either.

Help!

Thanks,
Ken
