Default Getting values from names by reference

Maybe...

=indirect("'" & b$2 & "'!a4")

But I'm confused about this Row in A4. I'm assuming that you meant an address
or a range name????

If this doesn't help, you may want to share the values that you have in each of
those cells. (January isn't just the result of a date that's formatted to only
show the month name, right???)

I am looking to get a value from a name created by concatination. For Example
I have a Column with January in B2 and a Row with Income in A4. I have a
named reference of Income with a scope of January. I also have the other
months as well.
I want to create the reference [CONCATENATE(B$2,"!",$A4)] and get the value
of that reference in the cell.
If I use indirect, I get a reference error. Anyone have any ideas?
