Default value error

I am trying to have a total page for jan-dec worksheets. tabs are labeled
jan, feb, mar, etc. I am entering formula =sum(janb4:decb4). How can I add
these without going to each spread sheet and having janb4,febb4,marb4,etc.
Thanks!

reference)

Try it like this:

=SUM(Jan:Dec!B4)

Hi,

You may also want to use the Data Consolidate function.
