Dynamic Field Name on Expression

Hi,

I have tables like that:

Table Values

[Value 01],     [Value 02],     [Value 03],     [Value 04]   ...... [Value 12]

102,                 200,                    588,               557          ......  231

302,                 400,                    238,               674          ......  211

504,                 200,                    454,               787          ......  344

168,                 540,                    358,               232          ......  432

149,                 341,                    543,               343          ......  342

239,                 540,                    356,               431          ......  342

Table Month

[Month_Number],     [Month_Name]

01,                             Jan

02,                             Feb

03,                             Mar

04,                             Ap

05,                             May

06,                             Jun

...

12,                             Dec

I want to do one table that have [Month_Number] with Dimension and the Expression put the sum of [Value xx] over it. Where xx is [Month_Number].

I'm trying to use the formula:

=sum($(='[Value ' & [Month_Number] &']'))

But it works just when I click over a Month_Number and I want that dispose all Month Independently of click.

How can I use the formula?

Values:

LOAD * INLINE [

    Value 01, Value 02, Value 03, Value 04,  Value 05, Value 06, Value 07,  Value 08, Value 09, Value 10, Value 11, Value 12

  102,        200,      588,      557,         231,    102,        200,      588,     102,        230,      581,    455

  302,        400,      238,      674,         211,    200,        454,      273,     332,        344,      123,    789

  504,        200,      454,      787,         344,    300,        454,      347,     345,        357,      125,    346
