The number of sheets in my workbook varies from day to day, with unique names for each sheet. I am trying to total cell contents from those sheets on a summary sheet. There is a cell whose contents are common to the sheet name. I am at a complete loss as to where to begin. There is not a lot of information here but I am not sure how to post enough to help.

Thanks in advanc

if you are summing information across sheets and the information is in the
same cell on each sheet, put in a sheet named Start and a sheet named End.
Put all sheets to be summarized between these two sheets.

In the summary sheet use a 3D formula

=Sum(Start:End!A1)

as an example.

All sheets between Start and End will be included in the sum (start and
end should be blank sheets.)

Or you can do it in VBA and use a for each loop

for each ws in activeworkbook.worksheets
total = total + ws.cells(row,col).value
next

or something like that.
