After seeing your example...

=INDIRECT("'[hourly steam "&B2&" 2008.xls]Summary'!"&c34)

where B2 contains the month you want.

These are cells from the spreadsheet as it is:
='[hourly steam December 2008.xls]Summary'!c34
='[hourly steam December 2008.xls]Summary'!c35
='[hourly steam December 2008.xls]Summary'!c36
...

I would like to set it up so I only put the month name in one cell and all
the links change.

I have a master calculation file which pulls data from a monthly data file. I
would like to use indirect addressing so I anoly change one cell each month

something that looks like the correct command, but I cannot make it an
executable statement to actually pull the data - it is text. Any ideas?
