You may have spaces in the sheet names.

With list of sheet names in column A

In B1 enter =INDIRECT("'"&A2&"'!"&"K20")

Note that A2 is not absolute so can be copied down.

I have several sheets that I need to pull the information from cells K20,

On a "Summary" sheet, I have listed the sheet names in Column A.

So far I have tried using versions of an INDIRECT formula, but it does not
consistently work (in fact, the few times it has worked, I can't figure out
why)!

Here's the formula I was using:
=INDIRECT($A$2&"!"&"K20") Usually this formula comes back as #REF... What
am I doing wrong????
