I am using Office 2003 on Windows XP.

I need a function that would return an integer or a long that indicates the
current position of the active sheet, counting the sheets from left to right.

So if you have sheets named: RawData, Reports, Data, and Calcs in a workbook
and "Data" is currently the active sheet, the function should return 3.

Your example code would be most appreciated. Thanks much in advance.
