for each sh in thisworkbook.worksheets
s = lcase(sh.name)
if s < "master1" and s < "master2" then


end if
Next

If the project X cell is in the same place in all data sheets, put in two
dummy sheets that are blank

First
Last

put all data sheets except the master sheet between First and Last in the
tab order.

In the master sheet use a 3D reference

=Sum(First:Last!B9)

or if a range of cells

=Sum(first:Last!B2:B20)

when you add new sheets between First and Last, they will be included in the
sum.

Hello,

Like most people on this thing I am pretty new to using VBA with Excel.
I have done a few things and now I am stuck on a task. Here's my
problem.

I have a Workbook that has 2 Sheets that are like master sheets and the
rest are individual projects that feed into these spreadsheets. I want
to take a certain cell from each of these worksheets named "Project x"
and sum up the total on a sheet "Employee Billings". I can do that in
excel however I am going to continue to add new projects so I want it
to update when I click a button after a new sheet is added with new
information. Anyone have any suggestions on how to accompnish this?

I know how to add buttons and all I just don't know how to code it.

Any help would be great!

Thanks,

Pat
