Error Naming Tabs

Why change the tab name every time you change the selection? Why not change it only when A1 changes?

Perhaps this in the ThisWorkbook module:

Unless i did something wrong, putting that code in does not return the value of A1. Did I miss something?

It renames the sheet to the contents of A1. If A1 is not valid as a sheet name, it renames it to the sheet index.

Not what you're wishing to do?

Well I must be doing something wrong.
I've copied the code and I'm not getting a return on A1.
I put BOB in A1 and I doesn't change to BOB. It reamins the same.
Have you verified this?
Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.

yes, I have.

Take your prior code out of the sheet modules, and put the code I posted in the ThisWorkbook module.

Sorry about that. I think I know what the problem is. A1 is a refrence to a cell in another worksheet. The tab doesn't update automatically when the A1 changes from the refrenced cell. Do you happen to know a way around this? Basically i'm wanting tabs in a workbook to be auotmatically named based on the inputed names on a particular worksheet. All worksheets refrence A1 to the "inputed worksheet" if that makes sense.

Thanks again for your help.

SHG-

Is there a way to update the taps with going into the a1 refrence and hitting enter?

Thanks

You could do it in the sheet activate event. Then if you switch away from the sheet and switch back, it will update:

You could do it in the calculate event also, but that seems needlessly weighty.
