Default how can I make a cell content equal the tab name 'sheet1' ?

Hello Mike H. Sorry to intrude. I like to learn from these questions.

I too tried it and it works. But what is the significance
of " +1,256" ?

TIA

Is there a way to make a cell content in a spreadsheet equal to the tab name
of that spread sheet w/o having to type the tab name into the cell?
Like b1="tab name" where tab name would be copied into cell b1
