Renaming Multiple Existing Sheets
Mar 7, 2014I am a teacher who has created a gradebook in Excel. Each class has a student template sheet, individual sheets for each student in the class (maximum 26 students/class) which has the structure of the template and some cell referencing to the template, and a couple of mark-entry sheets and a sheet that shows the progress of all students in the class.
A number of teachers in the school have been using this gradebook and I am constantly looking for ways to make it more user-friendly. Currently, when a new course starts, a teacher opens a blank copy of the file (which has all of the sheets I mentioned above present). To set up a class, the teacher enters the students' names once on the mark entry sheet (called the "Binder Sheet"), and then changes the individual student tabs (right click...rename...) to reflect the names of their students.
I am wondering if there is a way to have the individual sheet tabs (Student 1, Student 2...Student 26) update automatically to match the names that the teacher enters on the Binder Sheet in cells A4:A29.
I would like to be able to embed the update procedure/script into the blank template so that it is user friendly for others.
Renaming Sheets (newly Opened Workbook And Change It's Name)
Feb 12, 2008I'm experimenting a bit with this code. The idea is the following:
I've got one spreadsheet (ThisWorkbook) were I define 5 names for 5 worksheets in all files of a specific folder (c: emp). I get stuck at this line: "wb.Sheet2.Name = myval2", since I'm for some reason not able to activate the newly opened workbook and change it's name....
Sub wd_testing()
Dim I As Long
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim firstrow As Long
Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim cell As Object
Dim count As Integer
Dim myval2 As Variant
Dim myval3 As Variant
Dim myval4 As Variant
Dim myval5 As Variant
Dim myval6 As Variant
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
It's important to mention that there is no name conflict and the names work when entered manually.
Renaming Sheets: Replace The Word "March" In The Title
Apr 15, 2009What I am attempting to do is to replace the word "March" in the title of worksheets with the word "April" while preserving other characters in the name, i.e. for the sheet named "Marchweek4", have it renamed to "Aprilweek4". The code that I have so far will not replace only the "march" string but will replace the entire name which is not quite what I want.

Now im trying this:

So how could say final - 1?
Renaming Files Using VBA
Sep 15, 2009I have forty files in a folder that are generated by a system every day.
The files all have something in common, they all include "V9TEST" in them.
for example:
123asdfV9test.20090915123456
160asdfV9test.20090915124455
I would like to run a script that would rename these files in the folder, taking out the V9test part.
result:
123asdf.20090915123456
160asdf.20090915124455

View 6 Replies View RelatedRenaming Tabs With Dates
Jun 11, 2007Iīd like to have a single workbook for each calendar year, with a tab for each date Monday through Friday (like 11-Jun, 12-Jun, etc.). I could then type the patients` names and times of arrival, among the other information I track. Alternatively, I could have a workbook for each month of each year (titled for example 2007 June or 2008 August), with the tabs titled by the date of the month (like 1, 4, 10, etc).
Is there an easy way to do this without manually renaming each tab for each day of the year?
If itīs too hard to limit the macro to create tabs for only the days of the workweek, it wouldnīt bother me if the workbook had to include every day of the week (Sunday-Saturday). I can always go back and delete the unnecessary ones.
Renaming Tabs On The WorkSheets
Aug 4, 2007I mean renaming tabs on the sheets, the tabs at the moment are called Output 1 (*****) instead of Sheet 1 etc.. and i would like that changed to contents in cell A9. If possible only the Output 1 will be removed and it will change to something similar "X-Ray (5E4TT)"
i have a workbook with worksheets named Output 1 (*****)
(the stars being a five digit/letter code - the only thing that changes on the workbook)
now the problem is, i pull of reports and sometimes worksheets can be up to one hundred.. now in cell a9 is the name of the report. I have found vba code to rename sheets to cell contents **extract below**
but any chance of renaming contents of cell a9 to a worksheet named Output 1 (*****) etc.. and if the contents of cell a9 can be trimmed so only certain part of a lengthy title
Sub RenameTabs()
For i = 1 To Sheets.Count
If Worksheets(i).Range("A1").Value <> "" Then
Sheets(i).Name = Worksheets(i).Range("A1").Value
End If
Next

Renaming Files From A Spreadsheet
Dec 1, 2007to take a spreadsheet in excel and rename files with it. I will get all the columns together and
named properly by using the concatenate function. So when i go to rename i would have a
list of say 5,000 things to rename. In column A will be the full path. In column B will be the
new name i want it to replace the old one with extension and all. The reason i want to do this
is because that way i can work with the 5,000 files column A, B, C, D, get everything the
way i want it and then concatenate them. Then rename the files after copying and repasting
them so there is no formula. This would just be much easier than having to go to each
individual file and rename. also a lot easier to be able to compare and see what is going on
in spreadsheet i can sort compare. just a lot easier. i have messed around with excel some
but not macros much. what i would like to do is for a macro to look in A1 for path then
rename with B1. then A2 for path then rename with B2. loop through all rows until there is
nothing in A? that way there does not have to be a certain number of files. i do not know if
example
A1
C: estSGB04SGB04-08 - Frank Sinatra - Wives And Lovers.zip
rename to B1
SGB04-08 - Sinatra, Frank - Wives And Lovers.zip

VBA: Inserting And Renaming A Worksheet
Jan 25, 2010I'm relatively new to VBA and require programming help with the following:
I have created a button to add a specific worksheet template ("TE - Template") after another worksheet ("CO - Cockpit") and then name it:
Sub Add_worksheet()
Sheets("TE - Template").Select
Sheets("TE - Template").Copy After:=Sheets("CO - Cockpit")
ActiveSheet.Name = "AL - Class 1"
End Sub
However, I would like to let Excel check (via VBA) if the "AL - Class 1" worksheet already exists. If it does, the same template sheet should be added but named differently: "AL - Class 2". This should be possible for X worksheets (i.e., "AL - Class (X + 1)" everytime I add a new template worksheet. Thus, I would like to keep the same name (i.e., "AL - Class"), but with an increasing number (i.e., 1, 2, 3, X).
how I should amend the above code or supply me with a better (and efficient) way of programming this query?
Adding And Renaming Worksheets Using VBE
Apr 13, 2006I've undertaken a project for work with my very very limited knowledge of Excel VB.
What I am trying to do is automate the process of creating a new worksheet in a "Master" Workbook, rename and save that worksheet with the date it was created.
Each worksheet will hold a list of dates for staff members who have attended or attempted courses for that week and the information will come in via email in separate pre-created worksheet templates. The consolidated weekly data will ultimately end up in an MS Access db (but needs to be sorted and validated before upload).
Here is the code I have so far:
Private Sub AddSheets()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Worksheets.Add.Move Before:=Sheets(1)
Worksheets.Visible = True
Dim myDate
myDate = Date
Sheets. Name = Date
End Sub
