Renaming Tabs On The WorkSheets

Aug 4, 2007

I 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

End Sub

Renaming Tabs With Dates

Jun 11, 2007

Iīd 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 Multiple Tabs By Month

Dec 19, 2008

I would like to rename multiple tabs (12 in all) on a spreadsheet by month only. I highlighted all tabs and then performed a cut and past from the previous year spreadsheet, but when the paste was complete the tab names were missing. I need January through December on the 12 tabs. Does anyone know of a shorter process than renaming each tab individually? I have called several people and asked the same question and they are curious if there is a way to do this also and asked that I let all of the know what I find out, so you would be helping quite a few people in several different companies (If that gives you happy thought, then good for all of us ).

Renaming Worksheet Tabs Macro

Aug 14, 2009

I would like to create a macro that would bring up an input box or preferably a list box that will allow me to input information for a sheet/tab name where where "TBL NPL NGRPL" appears in the code at the end of this message. The macro needs to be available to any new file created

The only worksheet names needed are below.

TBL NPL NGRPL
TBL NPL NIAU7
TBL NPL NIAU8
TBL NPL NIA10
TBL NPL NNDU4

This is the extent of my ability:

Sub Macro1()
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Sheets("Sheet1").Name = "TBL NPL NGRPL"
Range("A1").Select
End Sub

I created six macros, but there must be an easier way.

Adding And Renaming Worksheets Using VBE

Apr 13, 2006

I'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

Renaming New Worksheets From List In Existing Worksheet

Jan 11, 2013

I'm attempting to add a variable number of worksheets (dependant on the number of entries in an existing list), then rename those sheets to the name of the entries in that list. i.e.

LIST
A
B
C
With the list above, i'd want 3 new sheets added, one named 'A', one named 'B' and one named 'C'.

The trouble i'm having is that because the number of entries/sheets varies, i don't want to refer to 'Sheet1' 'Sheet2' etc. to rename them.

***Additional Info*** the first record in the list is always "W4" on sheet "Data"

Below is where i've got to so far (however, i'm pretty new to this so it's almost certainly not all that efficient!)

Sub setup_1()

Sheets("Data").Select
Range("W4").Select

Copying Tabs To New Worksheets

Aug 25, 2009

I have a master spread sheet that contains many products which are then grouped into system. Typically, three or four products make up a system but it can be as few as 1 or as many as 6.

The master spread sheet contains all the products. But I would like to be able to create new worksheets where the new worksheet would only contain the tabs of the system.

All the tabs are named as follows: Product #, then system name: Here are examples: (all of the product names will contain the same amount of characters, but the system names will vary in the amount of characters necessary).

B23456 x1 Batter
B45930 x8 Batter
B39080 x5 Batter

B32556 x4 Breader
B39083 x2 Breader

B23049 x4 Predust

G34509 x5 Marinade
G34529 x3 Marinade
G34590 x3 Marinade

Thus, I would want the first 3 in a Worksheet, then Next two in a worksheet, and so on. A bonus would be if the worksheets were all saved with the System name, i.e. batter, breader, predust.

For Each Sheet In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
Sheet.Copy After:=ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1)
Next Sheet
Workbooks(Filename).Close
Filename = Dir()

Merge Data From Many Many Tabs (worksheets) Into A New Sheet

Feb 26, 2008

Basically I inherited a Excel Workbook which has 128 different tabs, unsurprising this is almost impossible to manage.

My requirement is to merge all of the 128 tabs into 1 tab 'Sheet1'.
The macro should keep going even if there are blanks, it should move onto the next tab only when there are over 10 consecutive blanks in Column B.

I have tried searching the forum but nothing seems to cater for the specifics of this case. I would really appreciate some help. I mean really, i am in a mad panic thinking i will have to do 128 tabs manually otherwise.

Creating Summary Sheet From Circa 100 Tabs / Worksheets?

I have several tabs, 100 or so, and would like to have cost per West, South region etc onto a summary sheet. The summary must separate these costs per individual company per tab/worksheet. I'm looking for a formula, a macro or both to execute this work for me. The tab list grows every time i.e. new ones are set up all the time so the formula has to take this into consideration.

You could use:
