[TD="class: postcell"]=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(65,20,1,1,VLOOKUP(C$4,FILELOCATION,2,FALSE)&C$4&$B$2&".XLS"))

I created the formula above to pull info from a source workbook(dynamic name) into a summary workbook. Source file name will be dynamic plus I will have 10 source files to pull into the summary workbook.
This formula works when the cell T65(65,20) is in Sheet1 of the workbook.
How do I alter the formula to pull from sheets other than Sheet1? I am trying to pull data from Sheet6 (in the source file) which is called Budget Export.
I don't know macros so this is why I am trying to stick with formulas.
I'm using Excel 2010.
Any suggestions?
