Macro AutoHide Worksheets with Numeric Names

[Samps]

Hello,

I have 2 macros that do the following:

Macro 1: Creates a new sheet from a master sheet for each entry in a list and renames the new copy for that entry. The list is a list of years that is formula driven. The list of years is generated from 2 cells: Start year and # of years. So if I have Start year as "2012" and # of years as "2" my list of entries is autofilled by formula resulting in 2012, and 2013. I run Macro 1 and it generates a sheet from a master sheet if they do not already exist and renames the new sheets "2012" and "2013".

Macro 2: Hides the year sheets from the list above if the entry has an "X" in the cell next to it.

Macro 2 works great if the list and sheet names are words/text. However, it does not work at all if they are numbers. I have been able to hide a numeric named sheet only under the following conditions: Manually enter the year in my list of entries (no formula) AND manually name a sheet the same year.

Any suggestions on how I can make the formula driven list and the macro driven named sheet formats match so that macro 2 will function properly?

Thanks in advance,
Steve

Try declaring the cell value as 'String'.

That worked perfectly! Thank you - marking as solved.
