    TAB Naming

    How TAB names be created automatically by reference to words in the spreadsheet?

    Re: TAB Naming

    Sheets("Sheet1").Name = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value


    Change sheet and range to suit.

    Thanks TMS, but unfortunately I don't know how to use the information you've provided. Is the any explanation.

    Re: TAB Naming

    You would have to create a short macro containing an edited version of that line of code. Or a variation on it.

    If you can be more specific about what you want to happen, I can perhaps offer a generic solution.

    Let's say that in cell A1 I have the word "Corporate" and I want the TAB name to be "Corporate".

    Thanks again.

    I got this to work, but it's not quite what I wanted. I tried to re-write it using ActiveSheet, but I couldn't get it to work. Should I be able to use "ActiveSheet"?
