Thanks Bob! That worked! Just curious...with the other code I had...is
there a limit? Seems like 67. Thanks again!

I removed that because that is what this line does

If Not Intersect(Target, Range("E9")) Is Nothing Then

it was superfluous.

This code, if inserted where shown, will work on any worksheet in the
workbook, regardless of how many there are.

Thanks Bob....however, your code removed the if Target.Address =

"$E$9"
then piece...how do I tell it what value to look at to use. It still

does
not change the tab names that I need. It seems handle 67 of these

code
sections but no more...is there a limit? Thanks.

perhaps this

'This is workbook event code.
'To input this code, right click on the Excel icon on the worksheet
'(or next to the File menu if you maximise your workbooks),
'select View Code from the menu, and paste the code

Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal

Target
As Range)
If Target.Count 1 Then Exit Sub
If Target.Value = "" Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("E9")) Is Nothing Then
Sh.Name = Target.Value
Sh.Range("C6") = Target.Value
End If

End Sub

Tom provided the code below...the code works great. My next

problem:
I
have
quite a few tabs to rename. I got to my limit I think. It won't

work
for
sheets past a certain number of code lines. My question is: Is

there
a
limit
to the number
of iterations? If so, how do I get around this? Any help would

be
appreciated...Thanks!


Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.count 1 then exit sub
If Target.Value = "" then exit sub
if not intersect(Target,range("E9:E24")) is nothing then
if Target.Address = "$E$9" then
Sheet3.Name = Target.Value
Sheet3.Range("C6") = Target.Value
end if
' add code for other cells
End if
End Sub
