Default new cell each day

How do I create a formula to pick a new cell each day of the month. If today
is the 6 and I want to reference cell g12 and on the 7 I want to reference
cell g13 and so on.

Default new cell each day

=INDIRECT("G"&DAY(TODAY())+6)
or
=OFFSET(G$12,DAY(TODAY()-6),0)

*Maybe* this:

=INDEX(G7:G37,DAY(NOW()))

What I am trying to do is use the date field in one workbook to reference the
cell of another workbook. so if today is the 6 then it will pull cell g12 in
another workbook.

For a start, you don't need the + sign.

Secondly, did you intend not to say
=+'[Apr MIR.XLS]Mid-City'!INDIRECT("g"&$a$44+9))
but instead to say
=INDIRECT("'[Apr MIR.XLS]Mid-City'!g"&$a$44+9)) ?

Yes. The OP has already said [in another thread, naughty girl!] that the
