Default sum() using indirect()

Can anyone post a formula that successfully uses
SUM(INDIRECT("concatenated cell range")) where the path isn't local to
the sheet it is on?

ex:

A1 = [TestBook.xls]Sheet1!B1
A2 = [TestBook.xls]Sheet1!B10

=SUM(INDIRECT(A1&":"&A2))

.....can you get that one to work??

Default sum() using indirect()

Invalid syntax

A1 = [TestBook.xls]Sheet1!B1
A2 = B10

=SUM(INDIRECT(A1&":"&A2))

Thanks Bob,
That did it, though I'm not sure why the full path wouldn't work.
