Default Select sheet from cell value

Sorry Dave, still doesn't work. I can populate the combo with the sheet names
or just type 1 in and still get the same errors.

You have to put the name of a worksheet that already exists in that workbook in
D3 of the Input worksheet.

My first guess is that you mistyped the name (watch out for leading/trailing
embedded spaces).

Sorry dave, I must be doing something wrong. I receive 424 "Object required"
or "D3 on Input doesn't contain a good worksheet name". What am I doing wrong

I would like to set the historyWks by the value in a cell.eg wks "Input"
Range D3. This would allow me to input the data to the selected sheet, as in
Rnd1, Rnd2 etc.
