Hi all,

I need to change the first sheet name of multiple (100+) files. Can I do
this automatically without opening all the files?

The name could be the same for each sheet such as 'Sheet 1'.

Thanks in advance.

Neil

Hi Neal

See the basic code here
http://www.rondebruin.nl/copy4.htm

Change the name of the sheet in the macro below
mybook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Name = "YourNewName"

And fill in the folder where the files are

'Fill in the path\folder where the files are
MyPath = "C:\Users\Ron\test


Sub Example()
Dim MyPath As String, FilesInPath As String
Dim MyFiles() As String, Fnum As Long
Dim mybook As Workbook
Dim CalcMode As Long
Dim sh As Worksheet
Dim ErrorYes As Boolean

'Fill in the path\folder where the files are
MyPath = "C:\Users\Ron\test"

'Add a slash at the end if the user forget it
If Right(MyPath, 1) < "\" Then
MyPath = MyPath & "\"
End If

'If there are no Excel files in the folder exit the sub
FilesInPath = Dir(MyPath & "*.xl*")
If FilesInPath = "" Then
MsgBox "No files found"
Exit Sub
End If

'Fill the array(myFiles)with the list of Excel files in the folder
Fnum = 0
Do While FilesInPath < ""
Fnum = Fnum + 1
ReDim Preserve MyFiles(1 To Fnum)
MyFiles(Fnum) = FilesInPath
FilesInPath = Dir()
Loop

'Change ScreenUpdating, Calculation and EnableEvents
With Application
CalcMode = .Calculation
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
.ScreenUpdating = False
.EnableEvents = False
End With

'Loop through all files in the array(myFiles)
If Fnum 0 Then
For Fnum = LBound(MyFiles) To UBound(MyFiles)
Set mybook = Nothing
On Error Resume Next
Set mybook = Workbooks.Open(MyPath & MyFiles(Fnum))
On Error GoTo 0

If Not mybook Is Nothing Then

On Error Resume Next
mybook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Name = "YourNewName"

If Err.Number 0 Then
ErrorYes = True
Err.Clear
'Close mybook without saving
mybook.Close savechanges:=False
Else
'Save and close mybook
mybook.Close savechanges:=True
End If
On Error GoTo 0
Else
'Not possible to open the workbook
ErrorYes = True
End If

Next Fnum
End If

If ErrorYes = True Then
MsgBox "There are problems in one or more files, possible problem:" _
& vbNewLine & "protected workbook/sheet or a sheet/range that not exist"
End If

'Restore ScreenUpdating, Calculation and EnableEvents
With Application
.ScreenUpdating = True
.EnableEvents = True
.Calculation = CalcMode
End With

Thanks for the help, but I get an error message:

I assumed this is a .vbs script, that is probably the source of the

Where and how do I run this script? See below:
