Sheet Names - How Can I Get The Sheet To Name Itself From A Cell
Apr 13, 2006
I have an excel sheet which at the moment takes it name from a cell on that
sheet, but what I would like to reverse if possible. How can I get the sheet
to name itself from a cell. I'm sure I've been on a web page in the past
with this info on it, does anyone have the link?
I have workbook that has several sheets within the workbook that are set up identical. Each of the sheets in the workbook are for a specific company.
As of right now I have been adding a sheet to the workbook that is an overview for what is in each sheet (the individual companies). Currently I am doing the formatting of the heading and column names manually and I pull the data from each sheet with a VLookup. I have been trying to enhance my VBA skills with coding something that will fill in the appropriate cells from worksheet to worksheet.
What I am trying to do is to populate an overview sheet with cells C24, C25, and B36 being static on each row per sheet. Then each row will be populated with cells C(36, 59, 70, 81), D(36, 59, 70, 81), F(36, 59, 70, 81), G, and H(36, 59, 70, 81). The overview sheet will have the diagram below in a ru
I need a macro that will look for a list of sheet names - like Albany, Houston, Denver - and return the value of a particular cell - like B25 from each sheet and display it in a column of cells on a summary sheet.
I am trying to allow for a cell selection to initiate a macro that would take the top cell in the current column and most left cell in the current row and placing those values into the names of the workbook and sheet that I want to move to.
I am tyring to allow for my users to drill down into data via selecting the cell in question that is referenced from another workbook and sheet. I want to place the value of the cell
= most left cell in current row - 1-1 to be placed in Active.sheet"1-1".select The work bood would pull the value from the most top cell in the current column and place that value in Activeworkbook.place here.select.
I would like to hyperlink the names in sheet 1 to the same names in sheet two. Is there a way I could do this using a formula rather that do each one by one?
(Matching names)where cell G and cell H in Data Sheet matches with cell A and cell B in template sheet , copy cell K on matching row in data sheet to matching name in cell D in the template sheet.
Could be as many as 50 rows of data in data sheet and only a range of D8 to D15 in template sheet.
Can send example but I cannot see where I have option to attach the file again : place_user.xlsx‎
Within one workbook I have 15 sheets, 13 are for separate divisions within the company, 2 are used to present sums across the 13 sheets. All 13 sheets have identical columns and rows, with unique numbers in each cell. Right now I am manually selecting the cells to reference in my master sheet, =sheet name!cell+sheetname!cell+sheetname!cell - so and and so on. How can I reference the sheet name once, and then all of the cells to SUM? =sheetname!(c4+c14+c24+c34) etc?
This would let me be able to copy the formula from cell to cell, and only have to change the sheet name each time.
I’ve had a look through the forum and on some of the guides/FAQ but thanks to my ineptitude I have been unable to adapt any of the examples to my specific situation.
What I’m after is this: I need to create a summary sheet for a work book with a variable number of tabs. All I need the summary sheet to do is to make a table of the name of the tab and then cell A17. How would I go about doing this and is it possible to save this macro to my machine/all workbooks instead of just the one?
1) I'm relatively new to arrays, but what I need to do is generate a list of file names and the sheets within each one. I would like to use an array for this, but since I don't have much experience.... well....that's why I'm here. Can someone point me in the right direction?
2) And the second part of this.... I was planning on using the FileSystemObject to determine the files in a selected folder and loop through that list of files, opening each one and harvesting the required info (file name and all sheet names). Should I use the FSO or is there something built into Excel that might be better (and also limit the number of dependencies for this little "project" of mine).
I have this script (below, Krishnakumar orignally provided this script).
I'm trying to edit it to add cell values from cells C16 and E16 along with the worksheet name it displays in listbox2. So lets say worksheet "rollover" is the sheet being displayed in the listbox2.
I would like for it to look something like this:
rollover TT:'data from cell C16' TA:'data from cell E16'
Public FilePath As String Public dic As Object Public oWB As String Public oWS As String Public aWS As Worksheet
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim i As Long, wb As Workbook, n As Long With Me.ListBox2 For i = 0 To .ListCount - 1 If .Selected(i) = True Then oWS = .list(i) Set wb = Workbooks.Open(FilePath & oWB, UpdateLinks:=0) wb.Sheets(oWS).Activate Exit For End If Next End With End Sub
I have a spreadsheet containing a list of key fob numbers, key numbers, etc. I have 3 userforms with different for different options, i.e. Key fob no. search, key number search, room number search. I have set up the code for each of the userforms to search for the information entered in the textbox and then lists the info in the listbox which I can then click on the one of the listed items to take me directly to the place in the spreadsheet.
However since there are a range of different key numbers per key fob, I would like to know what code I can use to allow a range of information such as the key number and room number, etc to be displayed in the same listbox as the Key fob number i searched for.
Here is my code for one of the Userforms:
Option Explicit
Sub Locate(Name As String, Data As Range)
Dim rngFind As Range Dim strFirstFind As String
With Sheet1.UsedRange Set rngFind = .Find(Name, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlPart) If Not rngFind Is Nothing Then strFirstFind = rngFind.Address Do
I cannot attach a example of my form since the site seems to have a limit on the size of the upload and my part of the file compressed in zip format is still at 168kb.
In Column A row 4 of sheet1 I have an account name, for example Sonic, and I have a sheet named the account name, Sonic. In Column B row 4, of sheet1, I would like to return the value in Column B row 3 in sheet named Sonic, or the account named sheet.
I have about 50 different account names along Column A in sheet1, and the same account name sheets opened in the same workbook. Is there a good formula or vba code that will work for all the values in Column A of sheet1 to look for the same named sheet and return the values off of that? Note: on the account sheets in Column A it says ‘Account’ for all of them.. this wasn’t a mistype
I have got a workbook with about 200 sheets... Sheet1 > Sheet200
i need to delete about 100 sheets... sheet100 > sheet200
i then need to add the sheets back in but when i do the sheet numbers start from Sheet201... how do i get it to start from Sheet101 again or can i use some vba to change them later?
I wrote the following macro to create hyperlinked Table of contents on the first sheet of a workbook. It works great unless the sheet name has a space in it, i.e. "new sheet" as opposed to "newsheet". Any way to get it to work for either/ or?

How can I obtain the sheet-level name through VBA? I'm not referring to the sheet (tab) name but the name as defined though Insert/Define or Insert/Create, etc .
I know the way to get the cell level name goes something like this:
MsgBox Sheet1.Range("A1").Name.Name
But i don't know the correct syntax for sheet level.
I made a macro that will name the current sheet whatever text is found in cell B2 on that sheet. This works great unless that sheet name already exists.
If the sheet name already exists, is there a way to rename it as Cell B2 plus the number 2 after the title so it doesn't cause an error?
Example:
"Smith, Bob" is a sheet name, so the macro would make the new sheet name "Smith, Bob 2"
Alternatively, how could I give a pop-up telling about the error and deleting the current sheet instead of renaming it with a "2"?
Eample:
"Sorry, 'Smith, Bob' already exists. Deleting new sheet." as a popup and have it delete the current sheet.
I have searched the forum and I have seem quite a few referrences to this question but can't find exactly what I'm looking for. I'm using the first sheet in the worksbook as a splash screen which has lots of button macros on there. I want to add one more which will make a list on this sheet from cell b25 down with all the sheet names in the workbook which are also clickable hyperlinks. Does anyone have any idea how to do this, so far I can make a list of the names..
Sub Index() Dim ws As Worksheet Dim I As Long
I = 25 For Each ws In Worksheets If ws.Name "Actions" And ws.Name "summary" And ws.Name "Archive" Then Worksheets("Summary").Range("B" & I) = ws.Name I = I + 1 End If Next ws
End Sub
But have no idea how to make these names clickable which will make the relevant sheet active. If it helps the sheet name is also in cell A2 of every sheet.
I have done a formula for Abbott as shown below however I actually have about 50 sheets with names. I have the names listed in column A. Is there a formula that instead of typing Abbott as shown I can use the cell in column A to generate a code ?
The Board looks full of some interesting issues today.
I'm working on a workbook that hides and unhides a lot of columns depending on the month the user has selected. No problems here.
The sheets are named regionally, ie National 2008, California 2008 etc. The user is able to select the month and the year from separate combo boxes.
So when 2009 comes around I will need to rewrite many lines of code to point the VBA to the new worksheet names like National 2009, California 2009. My question is, is there a way to reference either variable worksheet names in the VBA or some other manner in which to write the code so I don't need to rewrite every year change?
I currently reference the sheets something like Sheets ("National 2008").Range("H:H").EntireColumn.Hidden=True
I have a spreadsheet with sheet numbers that are controlled by the tab name. Is it possible to limit how people name the tab? For example, my sheet numbering must be: 101, 102, etc. Thus the tab would of course be 101, 102, etc.
I have been using the code below for a form. But now I need to change the sheet name to have spaces. But when I do. I comes up with the Run Time 1004 error on the “Ctrl.Text = Range(Ctrl.Tag).Text '*** “ line.
Why is it that this line is not allowing me to have spaces?
Private Sub Load_Controls() Dim Ctrl As Control For Each Ctrl In UserForm1.Controls If Ctrl.Tag "" Then Ctrl.Text = Range(Ctrl.Tag).Text '*** End If Next Ctrl End Sub
I want to add to it so that if the "Name" entered into the target cell is longer then the maximum allowd length it inserts an abreviation of the words (and increments where nessisary)
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range) On Error GoTo StandardName If Target.Address = "$B$4" Then Sh.Name = Target Exit Sub StandardName: Sh.Name = "Sheet1" End Sub
Just wondering if there is a way to prevent users from changing tab/ sheet names in a workbook? Either via sheet protection (I couldn't find any option) or using code.
I have a named range, "DDNames", on a master data input sheet and in that range are names of donors. In the same workbook I have sheets that provide a quarterly summary of each of the donors. I have named the sheets "Smry_Miller", as an example. Miller's name is in the named range, as well as others, for the format for each summary sheet is Smry_NAME.
I have a few things I want to do on each sheet so I am working on a FOR loop so I can make my code easily scale-able for when we get new donors or lose one. I get a Run-time error: 9 on my code and I'm just down right stumped.
VB: Sub MakingLoop() Dim arrAllDD As Variant Dim i As Long Dim varDDNum As Long varDDNum = Range("DDNames").Count
[Code]...
The debug highlights the line "Sheets("Smry_" & arrAllDD(i)).Range("G1") = arrAllDD(i)"
