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.

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.

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.

Workbook With Several Tabs

Dec 9, 2005

I have a workbook with several tabs. The top tab is the main spreadsheet
were I enter all my gathered data. The other tabs are the same spreadsheet,
the same data, but broken out by specific building.

Right now, I enter the data (alpha and numeric) into the main spreadsheet,
then manually copy/paste it to the respective sub-level spreadsheet.

I can specify the "IF" part of the line item that would identify which sheet
to copy it to, but is it possible to have a "THEN copy and paste [these
cells]" to the other spreadsheets?

Rename All Tabs In Workbook

Jan 21, 2010

I have a workbook that pulls in data from other sources and contains 15 linked sheets. The data changes when different criteria is selected in the first sheet. The first 2 sheets are summary sheets and the tabs are named correctly.

I would like to be able to rename the remaining 13 tabs using labels found in the cells in the first sheet. These tabs should update or change when the first sheet is manually recalculated (F9).

I have used ActiveSheet.Name=Range("A1") but it doesn't apply in this case. Is there a macro that could run with something like Sheet1.Name=Range("A1"), Sheet2.Name=Range("A2"), Sheet3.Name=Range("A3"), etc.... or maybe something in each sheet that would change the name of the tab to a specific name off sheet 1 when the whole workbook is recalculated?

Copy Certain Tabs To New Workbook?

Jan 10, 2014

I have a program that takes a templete, copies it, fills in some information and then renames the tab based on text in a cell on that sheet. The code loops so I end up with about ten tabs that are created from the Template.

I want to move these newly created tabs to a new Workbook.

is there a way (code) that will move all the tabs except ones delineated in the code - like the tab named "Template"?
