Jim,

I am using the Replace function, the "" is what the string "Week Ending " is
being replaced by, the first ) closes the Replace call, the second ) closes
the DataValue call.

It simply extracts the date string from the first workbook name, and makes a
real date from that.

Nice code Bob;
What is the value of start after running:
Line:
start = DateValue(Replace(.Worksheets(1).Name, "Week Ending ", ""))

What does the last , "")) do?
Thanks,

Jim

For i = 2 To .Worksheets.Count
Worksheets(i).Name = "Week Ending " & Format(start + (i - 1)

Next i

End Sub

I have copied a workbook that I used in 2006 for a simalar use in 2007.
The
workbook has 52 worksheets which names reflect the Sunday at the end of
the
week; (Week Ending 1-8-07, Week Ending 1-15-07, Week Ending 1-22-07...)

I would like to add a function that ties all the Tabs to the first Tab.
When
I change the name of the first Tab to "Week Ending 1-7-07" I would like
the
remaining 51 Tabs to change accordingly.

Can someone give me a suggestion?

Darrell
