I am trying to do some basic math from the values stored in another sheet,
below is my attempt which brings back an error. Any help appreciated. thanks

=EIsummary!SUM(C9:C15)

=sheetName

=SUM(Elsummary!C9:C15)

there is a method where you don't have to think about this, just type =SUM(
then click the sheet tab you want to sum with the mouse and then select the
cells,
then end by pressing enter

Your simple solution works great however what would be the best way to go
about it if the values needed are on two different sheets?

Thanks

=SUM(Sheet1:Sheet2!C9:C15)

For 3 sheets:
=SUM(Sheet1:Sheet3!C9:C15)

If you wanted 4 sheets,
And ... if your sheets were named:
Tom - Dick - Harry - Mary,
*AND*, they were in that order:

=SUM(Tom:Mary!C9:C15)

Or if sheets are added, create 2 dummy sheets that can be hidden that will
always be first and last
