I've just tried it again and it works fine for me.

Put this line

MsgBox "WS Change event"

try again and see if it returns the MsgBox

Thanks for the code , but it seems not to work. I copied the code straight
from your post and followed the instructions, saved the workbook and
alteredvalue in the cell and nothing. What could I be doing wrong?

If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then
Me.Name = Target.Value

ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True

'This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be

I am building an excel template that uses a sheet as an entry form and
produces several sheets from the information entered. I want the
worksheet
names to come from information entered into specific cells on the
first
sheet.

Many Thanks
