I cant' figure out what the exact words that I'm looking for and if I
did I would most likely find the answer.

I've got a spreadsheet that has a series of numbers in say column A
and it has the numbers 1,2,3,4,5

Further on in the spreadsheet I have named values like CA.1, CA.2, CA.
3

What I want to do is in the formula go:

=(X1/SUM(X:X,X,X:X)*CA.2) (for the named range CA.2)
Is it possible to have something that goes....

=(X1/SUM(X:X,X,X:X)*"CA"&B4) where B4 = 2  Thus the outcome would be
CA.2 ?????

=(X1/SUM(X:X,X,X:X)*INDIRECT("CA"&B4))

"CA" should probably be "CA."
