Default Named Range Question

I have a series of named ranges that are Question_1, Question_2, Question_3,
etc. I'd like to reference them with something like this:

"Question_"&A1 where A1 is 1, 2, 3, etc.

within a complicated array formula. How would I do this so that it finds
the named range?

Thanks

That worked in a simple formula, but for some reason didn't work in the
complex one. Thanks
