vba cell reference
I appreciate the prompt responses to my inquiry. I feel I probably should
explain what I'm trying to do more clearly. I have two open worksheets. The procedure would copy data from the source worksheet then paste that information to the target worksheet. The exact target worksheet name is always in cell c7 of the source worksheet. So, based on that value, it first locates the same sheet number in the target worksheet, then pastes the data. The source worksheet (tab) name keeps changing and does not always match precisely the name in cell c7 of that sheet (which does not change) -- douglass "Bob Umlas" wrote: oops -- misread the original.
