Rename Tabs With Code

Jan 10, 2007

I am pulling my hair out in frustration with this right now. I have a .csv file that I am attempting to run a macro on. I will need to move between tabs, and want to rename a tab to remove the date as it is not consistent in format. I have tried numerous ways, and I don't get an error message, but the tab is not renamed either. Code I have tried is below ....

Mass Rename Tabs

Feb 9, 2010

I have 4 employees by 52 weeks tabs in a workbook. The first 4 tabs are as follows:

Pat 010810
Dan 010810
Max 010810
Ann 010810

I would like some method (maybe VBA?) that I can rename the subsequent tabs, having the same names but the date with a seven day increment; i.e.the next tab would show Ann 011510, etc.

I don't know how to code, but can get to the VBA page and copy really well.

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?

Rename Multiple Tabs ...

Apr 4, 2009

Could you help with an onerous task that I must complete every Quarter.

I have a spreadsheet with multiple tabs.

The first 3 Tabs are Calculation sheets and do not need to be re-named.

All the preceeding sheets each need to be renamed to the days of the month (British Format), skiping Sundays.

i.e Tab 4 should be renamed 010409, Tab 5 should be renamed 020409, Tab 6 should be renamed 030409, Tab 7 should be renamed 040409, Tab 8 should be renamed 060409 and Tab 9 should be renamed 070409 etc etc ...

Extra - Also if possible on each sheet could the Tab date be placed into Cell A4 (eg. 010409) and also the Day number (eg. 01) (Starting from 01 on 010409, 02 on 020409, 03 on 030409, 04 on 040409, 05 on 060409, 06 on 070409 etc etc ...) into Cell A6.

Automatically Rename Sheet Tabs

Nov 3, 2009

I 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?

How To Rename Worksheet Tabs Using Formula And Formatting

Jan 27, 2014

I have a workbook with 30+ worksheets

named 23 Wed, 24 Thur, 25 Fri, etc etc

meaning April 23, 2014 Wednesday, April 24, 2014 Thursday, etc etc

The next project may start on May 19, 2014 Monday - so I have to rename each worksheet beginning with 19 Mon, etc etc

Renaming each worksheet manually takes a long time and is prone to error

I would like to just rename the first worksheet to start date of May 19, 2014 and have the rest renamed automatically.

Rename Tabs Based On Information In Cell

Mar 11, 2013

I am looking for a macro to rename tabs based on information in A1 on each tab. The thing that is causing me issues is the cell A1 has a formula in it and it changes on a daily basis with days of the week but the tab only updates when i double click A1 and press enter.

I need it to update automatically.

Taking Data From Document To Rename Tabs

Apr 21, 2013

There is a folder in a shared location which many people use at work. Within this folder, I have an excel document with all current stock (called "Current Stock"). There will never be more than 20 items in current stock. There is also other documents within this folder which relate to lots of other things, Interest, Deals etc.

What I want to do is every time a new item is added to the "Current Stock" document, a tab is created with that Item name within all the other documents.

Macro - Rename Only & Sheet... & Tabs With Last 8 Characters From Cell

Nov 5, 2009

I 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 Tabs (Sheets) Based On Cell Contents

Nov 10, 2009

I have 5 sheets. In the first sheet I have set up 4 cells where I want the contents of them to automatically rename the other 4 corresponing sheets.

Eg.
In Sheet 1, Cell B6, I want the contents (which will be text) to be the name of sheet 2 automatically.

In Sheet 1, Cell B7, I want the contents (which will be text) to be the name of sheet 3 automatically.

Click Button To Rename Sheet Tabs Based On Range

Jul 20, 2006

I searched a few times for the answer to my problem, using different search terms, but I've come up somewhat empty (this *might* be because I'm not up-to- speed with Excel's terminology?). Anyway, my problem is this: I have a workbook which is designed to track various data for a corporate training course ( sheets for attendance, grades, tool logins, etc). After all of these are sheets numbered 1-25 (we never have more than 25 students in a class, but usually around 20). The numbered sheets correspond to the student's number in the on the class list sheet (so, the first student would have personal "report card" information on sheet 1; the eleventh student in the class list would have their information on sheet 11, etc).

What I would like to do is have some way of putting a button on the class list sheet which would look at student list and rename the sheets to correspond to the student names. For example, if the fifth student listed was 'John Doe', it would rename his personal sheet ('5') to 'John Doe'. Obviously, I would need to do it for all of the students, and IDEALLY it would then get rid of any numbered sheets which are not used (having 21 students would only rename the first 21 sheets, but then hide sheets 22, 23, 24, and 25).

VBA Code To Create New Tabs In A Worksheet?

Sep 5, 2013

I don't know VBA code but i am familiar enough to know that a code can be written to separate out information into different tabs on a worksheet.

For example, I have a standard worksheet with say 20 columns going across and 20,000 rows going down. At each "name" change in row 1, I would like a macro to copy into a new tab. Basically the end result will have a tab for each name and the corresponding columns that go with the name.

Code To Select All Tabs In A Workbook

Oct 19, 2007

I have been recording different sets of commands then copying/pasteing them together to complete what I want. I have tried to clean it up as best I can but im sure it does things it does not need to. Is there a way to tell it to select all sheets in "Book2.xls" then remove the formatting (font color,comments,shading) rather than using the Array and naming each and every sheet?

What this will end up doing is openeing about 12 files, copying specific tabs from each of those files and pasteing them all to the same workbook (in this example it would be Book2). Then removing the formatting.

Workbooks.Open Filename:="F:123Book2.xls"
Windows("Book1.xls").Activate
Cells.Select
Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Select
Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Copy Before:=Workbooks("Book2.xls").Sheets(1)
Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Select
Cells.Select
Selection.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
Selection.Font.ColorIndex = 0
Selection.ClearComments

VBA Code For Changing Pivot Datasource On All Tabs

Jan 28, 2014

I'm uploading a sample worksheet- on the scenario A tab, there is a pivot table that are pulling from the data range that is between B3:c13. I copied tab A and made tab B. However, on tab B, the pivot table is still pulling from the data range on scenario A even though I need it to be pulling from tab B.

I do not want to use dynamic ranges because the pivot table is being used to make a pivot chart. How do I get it so that on the scenario B tab the pivot table automatically pulls from the right tab?

I have also have a macro/VBA (I don't know what it is considered, I just copied code from somewhere online) that automatically refreshes all pivot tables (there are other pivot tables being used in the spreadsheet). If I did need to use vba/macro to accomplish what I need to do, where would I copy/paste it in the code I currently have (not sure if the button I have in sample will work properly)?

Sub Refresh()
Dim PT As PivotTable
Dim WS As Worksheet
For Each WS In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
For Each PT In WS.PivotTables
PT.RefreshTable
Next PT
Next WS
End Sub

On tab B, I manually created another pivot table to show what I want the end result to look like. The pivot table between rows 22 and 24 and the corresponding pivot chart between columns E and M (lets call this pivot table/chart #1) is what I'm trying to manipulate. The pivot table between rows 26 and 28 and the corresponding pivot chart between columns o and V is what I want the end result to look like. I made pivot table/chart #2 by just manually setting the data source to be "ScenarioB!$B$3:$C$13.

However what I'm trying to do is get it so that pivot table #1 would automatically refer to ScenarioB!$B$3:$C$13 instead of ScenarioA!$B$3:$C$13. I created the tab "scenario B" but just duplicating the scenario a sheet. Thus, when I duplicate, the pivot table still incorrectly refers to data on the scenario A tab. I want it to pull from the scenario B tab.

The data range between $B$3:$C$13 automatically pulls from another sheet in my real spreadsheet.

VBA Code To Renames Tabs Dependent On Cell Name

Mar 27, 2008

Can anyone please help me with some code to rename tabs to match a value in a cell.

When I receive the spreadsheet it is in the standard Sheet1, Sheet2 and so on.

Now in cell E2 there is a Budget Cost code. Now I have to manually rename the tabs to match this code and it is quite time consuming.

Also Sheet1 is different as it has a logo in cell E2 so the budget code on that sheet is in E3 but like I said earlier Sheet2, Sheet3 and so on the budget code is in E2.

Can anyone post a little macro that will rename all the tabs on the worksheet to match the budget code in the above mentioned cells.

Old Tabs Not Behaving Like New Tabs

Jun 25, 2008

I'm using Excel '03SP2 on Win 2000sp4. I believe I have a case where old tabs originally written in Excel ' 97 behave differently than new tabs in the same workbook, which is saved in 2003 format.

Specifically, the formula ="PLAN" & budyr-1 where budyr is a named range on a different tab containing 2008 . This formula yields PLAN 2007 on a new tab and #VALUE! on an old tab.

How do I get Excel to update the old tabs so that they behave as Excel 2003 tabs?
