Rename Sheet With Cell Value Using Formula?
Jun 13, 2002I found a post to name a sheet using the cell value with VBA but is there a "formula" in Excel that will do the same? I'm wanting only to use the first 10 letters of a cell.

Rename Sheet With ActiveSheet.Name Formula
Oct 15, 2009I am trying to use ActiveSheet.Name formula to rename the active sheet. It is only working part of the time and I can't figure out why. I do know, however, when it is going to work and when it is not going to work. If cell A2 contains two words, it does not work. If cell A2 contains only one word, it does work. Here is the code. The highlighted part in blue is the code that names the sheet. I have attached sample spreadsheet if needed.

Rename 500 Sheets Based On Modified Cell Value On Each Sheet
Jul 31, 2013I receive a workbook each day with approx 500 tabs of call data and I would like to relabel all the tabs with the user names. The user names are in a merged range "A7:M7". I'm having difficulty getting the following script to rename the sheets. Currently the values in "A7:M7" look like "User: ADAM ENGEMANN-558".
I am trying to delete each occurrence of "User: " while naming the sheets as well as removing the merged range before doing so that the names are in A7 only. The sheet names should look like "ADAM ENGEMANN-558", or, ideally just "ADAM ENGEMANN". For some reason my code will not modify the cells. (See attached example)
This works if I manually unmerge the cells before running and remove the ":".
VB:
Sub RenameSheets2()
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
If ws.Range("A7").Value <> "" Then
[Code] .....
This his how I modified it but it doesn't work on the supplied sheets. Please note that if I manually insert some blank sheets into my workbook and merge the cells etc it does work. There seems to be something odd going on with the sheets they are giving me. (they aren't protected)
VB:
Sub RenameSheets2()
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
If ws.Range("A7").Value <> "" Then
I tried adding the following to remove the merged ranges and remove 'User: ' from the names
Range("A7:M7").Select
With Selection
.WrapText = False
.MergeCells = False

Rename Excel Sheet Based On Cell Values?
Aug 17, 2014I am having trouble creating a macro that renames all excel sheets using cells on Sheet1.

Macro - Rename Only & Sheet... & Tabs With Last 8 Characters From Cell
Nov 5, 2009I pull an excel sheet from a database each day that gives me sales data for different products sold. The way the spreadsheet comes from the system, the first tab is named "Document Map" and lists all of the products, and each product then has its own tab but they're generically named (Sheet1, Sheet2, etc.). The name of the product is always in cell T8, but the name itself is only the last 8 characters of that cell.
What I'm hoping to accomplish with a macro is two things:
1) Retrieve the last 8 characters from T8 in each tab, and name the tab with those characters (same effect as the formula "=right(T8,8)").
2) Ensure that this only occurs on tabs with the word "Sheet" in the beginning. Depending on the day, there could be any number of products and they each get their own tab, so I was hoping to be able to get the macro to only work on sheets where the first 5 characters are "Sheet" regardless of the number after that.
Rename Sheet And Hide / Unhide Based On Cell Contents?
Feb 10, 2014I have a master sheet where users can change the name of 20 different sheets in the workbook by changing a cell value on the master sheet. Here is the code:
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rCell As Range
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
[Code]....
The next step which I am having issues with is hiding the sheets. I want all sheets in the workbook to be hidden except for the master. I only want the other sheets to be visble if the user inputs a name on the master sheet.
So if the cell contents on the master sheet, say "B9", is blank, the sheet in the workbook that corresponds to that cell will remain hidden. If the user inputs anything, say "Sheet1", in cell "B9" on the master sheet, I want that sheet to become unhidden and to be named "Sheet1"

View 2 Replies View RelatedRename Sheet While Copying To New Workbook
Jun 12, 2014I have an electronic meter (Fluke AirCheck) that provides me with reports in the form of excel documents. I need to combine those documents and have a page/worksheet that contains a legend and some notes etc. for reporting to management.
Given:
I have a folder with nearly identical workbooks. All contain 4 worksheets:
Document map
Sheet2
Sheet3
Sheet4
Goal:
1. Copy and combine, either specific sheet(s) or all the sheets from multiple workbooks into a new workbook (with prompting)
2. Rename the worksheets as the workbook file names and existing worksheet names combined.
Example:
Workbook name is "101B.xls"
Worksheet 1 would be = "101B - Document Map"
Worksheet 2 would be = "101B - Sheet2"
Worksheet 3 would be= "101B - Sheet3"
Worksheet 4 would be= "101B - Sheet4"
Results thus far:
Okay so I managed to find a script that does most of what I need:
[Code] .....
For renaming the worksheets I have tinkered with:
[Code] .....
But alas none of that works. I can also only copy 1 sheet at a time currently.
Another issue which seems to have reared its ugly head in the copy and paste function as the text on my new worksheets is white on white when the originals are black text on white. I can select the new worksheet and select all cells and hit "Automatic" on text and it fixes it but that's a pain on 100+ worksheets. So I need some sort of copy /paste special command, I think to make that work too.

Automatically Rename Sheet Tabs
Nov 3, 2009I have a workbook with multiple tabs. On sheet one a person chooses a date to initialise a formula. That date is then copied to sheet two and placed in cell D5. The date is projected out for two weeks and then the next fornight starts on sheet three and so on. The start date for each new fortnight appears in cell D5 of each sheet. I want that information to be the name of the tab for sheet two, three etc. I have put this code into the "This Workbook" section:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
' Renames all worksheet tabs with each worksheet's cell A1 contents.
'If cell A1 has no content, then that tab is not renamed.
For i = 1 To Sheets.Count
If Worksheets(i).Range("$D$4").Value "" Then
Sheets(i).Name = Worksheets(i).Range("$D$4").Value
End If
Next
End Sub
I have also tried:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$D$4" Then ActiveSheet.Name = Left(Target.Value, 10)
End Sub
I then go back into sheet one and change the date and nothing happens. I seem to be missing something. Can anyone please help?
