can we take this abit farther? I'd like then tab names to come up in
reverse
order..is there away of doing this? e.g going from left to right December
to
the left and January to the far right? also if there is a date formula in
A1
how do I change the macro as it wants only to read text..

Hi there,
Thanks for reading my question.
Is it possible to name a sheet from a cell value with in the sheet?
i.e. I
have 12 sheets, each sheet represents a month and the month value is
in cell
A1. Can I rename a sheet by refering to cell A1 instead of manually
renaming
the sheets to January, February etc.

Many thanks

Tony
