Auto-naming Tabs In A Workbook

Jan 11, 2008

I have a workbook with a list of names of up to 15 people in each of 5 rows. Each row then populates a row in a separate workbook with those names. Each person is identified by a number and each person then has their own worksheet in that workbook.

Is it possible in some way to auto-name the tab for each worksheet from the number in the name cell?

Naming Tabs ...

Aug 20, 2007

To automatically make the name of a sheet tab the same as in cell A8 of the same sheet, I'm currently using the following code ...

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
ActiveSheet.Name = Range("A8")
End Sub

however, I find that if I change the name that is in cell A8, the tab name doesn't change accordingly.

I need a code that will name the tab whatever is in cell A8 but also be fluid enough to change the tab name if the contents of cell A8 changes.

I do not want this code to operate all sheets, but only a few.

Naming Worksheet Tabs In Day Of Month Sequence

Mar 28, 2008

I'm a little scared to post what with all the warnings and instructions but here goes.

Each month I have to create a new workbook for entering data daily, the tabs are named
"April 1" "April 2" "April 3" and so forth.

I am looking for a shortcut to adding each sheet manually and renaming each tab after adding in 30-31 sheets.

I have found code for adding and naming in numeric order, weekday, monthly, but need something to add both the name of the month and the day of the month.

Feb 28, 2014

Is there a macro available which will create a pre-defined name for a pivot sheet, which will contain the word "Pivot" followed by a underscore "_" and the name of the sheet on which the pivot is applied.

Example: I have data on a sheet called "Salary" and put a pivot on "Salary" on a new sheet, the new sheet should be auto named as "Pivot_Salary"

Auto Create New Tabs

Jul 17, 2008

I have a column with multiple currencies. Is there a way to write a formula or some code that will look to that column, and create a new Tab for each new currency name it finds, and then name the Tab that currency?

For example, C5:C15 has an assortment of entries either USD, GBP, AUD. I'd like a search that looks to C5 and creates a new tab labeled whatever the first currency is, then move down the column and do the same thing every time it encounters a new currency, but pass over a cell if it's a currency that already has a tab made for it.

Tab Naming

Sep 15, 2008

My workbook has a summary page and one page for every day of the month. I am making a template file, so I can duplicate it to use every month of the year.

Each week is separated by a worksheet titled "week 1", "week 2" , etc. This is used in the summary page so I can gather totals for a week.

What I want to be able to do is this:

On the first day of the new month, go to week one and type in the date. Then that sheet tab would equal the date, and each daily tab name thereafter would increment the appropriate amount (1day). Then on week 2, it would be equal to the tab value for Friday +3.

The problems I see are:

1. In week 1 the month can start on any on of the 5 worksheets I have set up to cover the week. So any first day coding I need may have to be repeated in the first 5 worksheets

Is this do-able?
2. Tab naming code I have found on this site is not working for dates. 9-15-08 typed into a1 will not translate into the tab, even tho it is a valid name. I am using code VoGII gave which follows: ...

Spreadsheet Naming

Aug 24, 2009

We utilize a shared spreadsheet in our department named "Arrangement Requests".
From time to time and seemingly very random the sheet renames itself. When this happens anyone adding information to it becomes unable to save since the original "no longer exists".

This causes problems because everything we do is in real time and expected to be viewed by all as soon as save has been indicated.

Naming New Tab Without Knowing Its Name

Is there a way to name a new tab without knowing its name. For instance, when I create a new tab, it could be named "Sheet2" or "Sheet3", but there is sometimes no way to know. Is there a way to edit the name of that new tab without refering to it by name?

Naming Ranges

Jul 26, 2007

I have a spreadsheet which has four columns and numerous rows

Example:

Location - Desc - Price - ID#
Electric - Duplex Outlet - $5.00 - 12-0001

I would like to use VBA to name ranges. I need to name the Desc., Price, and ID# columns separately and want to use the Location and the headings of each column as the name range. Example - the column containing Duplex Outlet would be named ElectricDesc.

This is what I came up with, but need to figure out how to make "add name" a formula combining Location+Desc. I tried concatenate (B1,A2) but it did not work.

ActiveSheet.Names.Add Name:="MyRange1", RefersTo:="=$A$1:$B$10"
