Default How to use a cell value as the ref argument in CELL"contents" form

C1 to U1 contain the formulae =CELL("contents",'Dec08'!B$41) where Dec08 is
the name of another sheet in the same workbook. (Of course, each cell betwen
C1 and U1 refers to consecutive cells in row 41 in the Dec08 sheet.) I want
to be able to add more month sheets (ex: Jan09) over time and create another
line of cell references wihout having to manually set each new cell to the
new month sheet. I've tried entering the sheet name in X1 and then refering
to its contents in the Cell"contents" formulae, but the function always
returns a error. I was unable t o use CONCATENATE or ADDRESS successfully.
Help please.
