Default Sum

I would like to sum a common cell, by defined name, accross a set of
different sheet. The cell name is the same, with a scope to the sheet only.
Example: sheet1!total + sheet2!total + sheet3!total... and so on
I want to be able to do this without having to type in the above, but have
been unable to determine how to get something like the following to work:
Example: =sum(sheet1!:sheet2!,total)
I would be most grateful if anyone can show me how to do this. Thanks.
