Summary of Worksheet names
I am trying to create a list of worksheet names on my first worksheet,
similar to a table of contents. Is there a way of linking to the worksheet names, so this table gets updated automatically? Thanks, Niamh |

If you run this small macro, it will produce a list of sheets that are
"clickable": Sub EasyToc() ' gsnuxx Dim ws As Worksheet Dim n As String Dim p1 As String, dq As String, sq As String dq = Chr(34) sq = Chr(39) p1 = "=HYPERLINK(" & dq & "#'" p2 = "'!A1" & dq & "," & dq k = 1 For Each ws In Worksheets n = ws.Name Cells(k, 1).Formula = p1 & n & p2 & n & dq & ")" k = k + 1 Next End Sub -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200816 "Niamh" wrote: I am trying to create a list of worksheet names on my first worksheet, similar to a table of contents.

Dear Gary,
The macro is very very useful to me. Moreover, if I want to list out the worksheet names with hyperlink done automatically of another workbook, how should I modify the macro? Thanks in advance.

Dear Bob,
Your suggestion has improved my problem that worksheet name listing can be retrieved from a protected workbook, provided that I must manually open the source workbook. However, I still need to manually make hyperlink from the new listing to link to the protected workbook to ease the checking. Pls check if I can change the workbook name (excel file name) at the worksheet like defined names or enter the excel file name at a designated cell rather than via the macro because I need to retrieve the worksheet names from protected workbooks frequently. My problem is that I need to fill up package files from Head Office and each workbook has many worksheets with similar names which can be easily missed. With Gary's macro, I can retrieve all the worksheet names and automatically hyperlinked to the selected worksheet. However, I cannot apply the said macro when the workbook is protected. Thanks for your valuable assistance.
