Dynamic Range in Array Formula 1

[osx99]

I have the following array formula in cell A1

{=SUM(IF(('701'!$BN$5:$BN$5001>0),'701'!$BN$5:$BN$5001))}

In cell B1 I have a formula

=CONCATENATE("'701'!",ADDRESS(5,MATCH(B3,'701'!$A$3:$DY$3,0)),":",ADDRESS(5001,MATCH(B3,'701'!$A$3:$DY$3,0)+3))

which outputs text $BN$5:$BN$5001

How can I update cell A1 so it uses the output range in B1?

{=SUM(IF((B1>0),B1))} does not work?

Many thanks,
Os

INDIRECT accepts a string reference and outputs a range pointer

{=SUM(IF((indirect(B1)>0),indirect(B1)))}

We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names and all are different colours but they all live in the same box.
