Removing double quotes around strings returned by formulae
Not sure about this, but it looks to me as if what might want is =INDIRECT("D35:D42")
Try that. If it's not what you're seeking, come back with an example spreadsheet and a more complete description.

hi , i have the same problem, i couldn't solve it with indirect !!
any suggestions plz ?
It's probably not the same problem then, wouldn't you think? So let's start with a more complete description of whatever the problem is that you're experiencing. And, if it's possible--if your spreadsheet doesn't contain confidential or proprietary info--please post a copy of the spreadsheet itself in OneDrive or GoogleDrive and paste a link here that grants edit access.

=COUNTIFS(StaffTBL[Position],"Head Teacher",StaffTBL[Gender],"MALE",StaffTBL[Dec-2022],"Active")
StaffTBL: Table Name
Position, Gender, Dec-2022: Columns Name
i want to change the selection of the month column according to the current month ..so , i have column for months (Sep-2022,Oct-2022,.....Jul-2023) , i used countifs as shown above and i tried to change month column dynamically by using Hlookup formula inside countifs formula , and it worked ,but when the Hlookup brings column name it keeps put hidden quotes ("" "") at first and end of column name, if U use hlookup separately it will bring correct column name but when i put it inside countifs it brings column name as "StaffTBL[Dec-2022]"
