Default Can I use a worksheet name in a formula?

I'm using Office 2007
I have a workbook with 20+ pages. On one of them I want to use a formula
that refers to a worksheet name, but in different cells I want it to refer
to different worksheets.

I have a cell that currently has a name typed into it that matches a
worksheet name. Can I refer to the contents of that cell (INDIRECT) and use
the content to refer to the correct worksheet and then go to that worksheet
for the data?

eg. Sheet called Christmas. In cell H2 value = Pudding
on another sheet cell B2 value = Christmas. I want the formula in cell J12
to go to Sheet Christmas and give value of cell H2

Thanks
Chris
