    Red face Display the sheet name in a concatenate formula

    Hey ya'll,
    I'm pretty sure this is either an easy one or impossible one:
    I have multiple concatenate formulas to populate cells on multiple sheets. Right now, they're multiple different formulas, because I can't find a way to have Excel read and insert the sheet/tab name into my formula.
    Now, I know that you can use "&[TAB]" in the header/footer and it'll do just that, but when I tried that in my formula, it didn't work.
    So far, I've manually typed the tab name into the formula, but with each engineering change, I have to change the name and manually re-type the formula (or at least change it). Thus-far, my formula is simple:

    My question is this - is there a way I could replace Sheet 1 Named thus in my formula with an auto-read of the tab name?

    Please and Thank You in advance.
    Oh! I get it. I need rep--->҉

    Try
    =CONCATENATE(Printout!$H$4," ", MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,50),
    " Named thus")
