Default Tab sheet name

Try
'-----------------
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
Dim strName
Dim j
j = 0
strName = Range("b36").Value
For Each ws In Worksheets
If (strName = ws.Name) Then
j = 2
End If
Next ws
If j 0 Then
strName = strName & "(" & j & ")"
End If
Me.Name = strName
End Sub
'-----------------

This will name the sheet as round(2) if round already exists
but will fail if round(2) exists.
You need to expand it to test for this condition, take the highest number
and add one to it...

I have this code,
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
Me.Name = Range("b36").Value
End Sub
that name the sheet tab based on cell B36. The problem is when I copy the
sheet and I enter the same name in the duplicate sheet and the previous sheet
I get an error. Is there a way to add a nuber at the end of the duplicate
sheet.
example:
1st sheet name = Round
2nd sheet name = square
3rd sheet name = round(2)
all sheet have the same calculations.
