VBA- To Rename The Sheets Directly After Creating Them
Aug 21, 2008
I have a macro which creates 4 worksheets. Unfortunately sometimes they are named by default "Sheet5", "Sheet6", "Sheet7", and "Sheet8" when the macro is set to "Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3", "Sheet4". My question, is there a way to rename the sheets directly after creating them so that the sheet in the very first position in the spreadsheet is named "Sheet1" (the same would go for sheets 2-4). The code below wont work if the sheet decides to be a name other then "Sheet5" so how do I point to the the worksheet known as Sheet5 without using its name and tell excel I want its default to be "Sheet1"?
Code below:
Sheets("Sheet5").Select
Sheets("Sheet5").Name = "Sheet1"
Sheets("Sheet6").Select
Sheets("Sheet6").Name = "Sheet2"
Sheets("Sheet7").Select
Sheets("Sheet7").Name = "Sheet3"
Sheets("Sheet8").Select
Sheets("Sheet8").Name = "Sheet4"

I have a worksheet titled "master plan" with many columns of data. I want to create many tabs based on this data.
One tab I want that just has the data from columns C, F, A, E, G and L (in that order) Starting with the header data in row 2. And titled "LOB".
Then I want a different tab for each unique item in Row C with these same columns (C, F, A, E, G and L from "master plan" tab or A, B, C, D, E and F from new "LOB" tab). The tab name should be the unique row C value.
So for example, say that there about 20 rows where 'A' is in column C, about 30 with 'B' in column 'C' etc .... There should be a tab with the name 'A' with those 20 rows of data and a tab with the name 'B' with the 30 rows with B and so on.
I also would prefer not to have to delete the existing 'A' and 'B' tabs every time before recording the macro so if it can either create a new tab or replace an existing tab with that name if it already exists.
To make things a little more difficult.. for the (in this example) 20 items with an 'A' in column C, there are (at this time) 3 different possible items in column B of 'master plan'. I'd like to create 3 separate tabs for each unique value in column B and I want the name to be dependent on the data in Column B (for example, the three unique items in column B with a column C of 'A' are Red, Green and yellow. I want three new tabs set up for each and the tab names to be: if B = Red, then tab name = 'Stop', If B = Green, then tab name = 'Go', if B = Yellow, then tab name = 'Slow'.
I have something that partially works, but I have to create the 'LOB' tab first and it doesn't work if any of the sheets already exist. And it doesn't do the Red, Green, Yellow part.
Here is what I currently have:
Sub DeptTabs2()
Dim strSrcSheet As String
Dim rngSrcStart As Range
Dim rngSrcEnd As Range
Dim rngCell As Range
Dim strLastDept As String
Dim intDestRow As Integer
On Error GoTo ErrHnd
[Code] ..

I have 20 sheets in the workbook. 10 sheets are named YR1, YR2, etc. Once the user enters information on sheet "Assumptions" - names are setup and linked onto each YR page. So user enters CY10, which links to cell C5 on YR1 to show CY10.
I would like a macro that renames just the YR1, YR2, ....sheets, to CY10, CY11, .... I do not want any of the other sheets to change names.

I have a workbook containing many worksheets. The worksheets are clients in my system.
I have no big problems with my VBA code, but what I really thought was simple is causing my system to take very long time processing.
Sheets("Kunde mal").Select
Sheets("Kunde mal").Copy Before:=Sheets(3)
Sheets("Kunde mal (2)").Select
navn = Range("kundeNavn").value
ID = Range("kliNr").value
Sheets("Kunde mal (2)").name = navn & " - " & ID
Sheets("Kunde mal").Select
Why is this taking so many seconds?
Are there other ways to copy sheets?

I have a WorkBook with many Sheets "imagine Sheets.count=50"
9 of the CodeNames for this Workbook's sheets are: sht01. sht02, sht03, sht04, sht05, sht06...
If I want to change the name "not the CodeName" of say "sht01" I can use:
sht01.name="New Name"
but is there a way of doing this whitin a For Next this way:
For X = 1 To 9
Sheets("sht" & X.CodeName) = X ' the Name X is just for this eg
Next X

In column C I got some data like this:
Number of .csv
01
02
03
04
Number of .csv
05
06
07
08
Notice that there is an empty cell in between.The data starts at C12 up to C21. The data is in Sheet2.There are also 8 more sheets( Sheet3 to Sheet10). I want to rename each sheet, starting from Sheet3 according to each cell. For example the Sheet3 to be renamed to 01, Sheet4 to 02.
What I can do is something like this:
[Code] .....
And repeat this code for every block of data I got by changing everytime the i and the a. But this method is not so optimized because there are cases that the number of rows for each block is not the same and I have to change everytime the i counter. Is there any way to do 1 loop for all the sheets using maybe Worksheets.Count and another dynamic loop for the rows ? The data always start every 6 rows eg( C12, C18 etc). Also I was thinking to define an integer representing the number of rows for the loop...

Say you have a userform with 10 TextBoxes, let’s call them TxtN1…TxtN10 and your workbook has 10 sheets, say “Sheet1”…”Sheet10”. Now if one wants to code a procedure to rename those worksheets when the user hits a command button it’s simple enough.
Sub Rename_click()
For i = 1 To 10
With Sheets(“Sheet” & i )
. name = TxtN & i
End With
Next i
End Sub
But now if the user then changes the textboxes TxtN1…TxtN10 to a set of new strings it’s obvious that the following coding segment will not work:
For i = 1 To 10
With Sheets(TxtN & i)
.name = TxtN & i
End With
Next i
It goes without saying that the program will try to select the worksheets with the new name (and they obviously don’t exist yet)…

I 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
[Code] ......

I am working with a workbook that has data automatically entered each time a new child is enrolled to the program. The child's data is automatically entered to the sheet named "Intake". What I need to do now is rename that sheet using the child's name as the sheet name, but also keep the sheet named "Intake" for the next entry. I would then like to sort the sheets alphabetically but leaving the "Intake" sheet either as the first sheet or the last sheet. I have attached an example of the workbook I am working with.

1. I created a macro to put in multiple sheets when clicking in pivot table fields
2. I didn't want to include 2 main sheets in the process ("PROV_AGENTEN_SEE_EXTERN_2013073") and ("PIVOT 20130731")
3. In each newly created list I want to put in the sum of the last column. This will be calculated in the last cell below the table.
The last point is troubling because it looks at right values but the sums are not right. They are right only in the last sheet in others it isn't calculated correctly.

Sub Sheetsfrompivot()
Application.DisplayAlerts = False

I am trying to find a way to create new sheets in a workbook that when created will reference a new row on a data sheet in that workbook. Each workbook could end up containing varying numbers of sheets (anywhere from 2 to 150+) based on size limitations. There are some lookups and referenced data on each sheet that would be copied as is and not reference the data sheet. I have not included these in my example.
I'm trying to avoid having to change each cell's reference manually for all of these sheets (which is one of the solutions I've come up with so far). My current method of creating these workbooks does not involve the data sheet and each workbook starts off with data only on sheet1. I select and copy that sheet into sheet2 and every subsequent sheet. I want to incorporate the data sheet so it can be filled out by someone else and copied into that tab to populate all of the data sheets.

I have following code which is not behaving the way I want.
[Code] ....
The problem is the last statement, a chart which gets created in an iteration does not "move" to a new sheet but rather same sheet. So end result is a sheet with chart of the last iteration.
How to get this code to create new charts in new sheet and not the same sheet.

I have a wb containing several sheets that the field supervisors use to fill out for ordering material. Each sheet contains different types of material. The problem is that, if they only need one particular item from each type (sheet), they have to print 7 or 8 sheets just for those 7 or 8 items. I want to create a sheet that will list everything they are ordering in one compact, neat area, so they only have to print one sheet.
The set up of the sheets goes like this. There's a column containing the name of all the items. Next to each item is a place they can specify how many of that item they want. They leave it blank if they don't want any. That's it. Really quite simple.
So now, I need this new sheet to find all the cells that a quantity was entered on the other sheets, and list that and the description of the item wanted, along with what type of material it is. I have figured out one way of doing it, but it would take a crap load of hidden IF formulas, and I know there has to be a simpler way. I'm open to all suggestions - whether it's vb codes or formulas, it doesn't matter to me.

I am trying to create a single pivot table using data from multiple sheets (one per month). I am trying to summarise the headcounts (count of assignment number) by month in a single table and then be able to select single months/areas or combination of months/areas in the same way as a single sheet pivot table. I have managed to get the table part way there but it’s not counting the assignment number and my Jan data is not appearing (see attached). How do I fix this? (I have only used 5 months of year in example due to the large file size) Alternatively is there a different or better way to this other than pivot table?
