Is there a function that links the text on the Worksheet Tab to a Cell?

Darrell

One way

=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,32)

Peo:

This seems to be a method to extract text from a string in a given cell. I
don't think it will work with the TAB. (unless the Tab has an address similar
to a cell's address.

I entered my file name: =MID(CELL(Test,A1),FIND("]",CELL(Test,A1))+1,32)

I entered my file name along with it's extension:
=MID(CELL(Test.xls,A1),FIND("]",CELL(Test.xls,A1))+1,32)

I entered my file name along with it's extension and it's path:
=MID(CELL('C':\Documents and Settings\Darrell.Roak.PUMP_EXCH\My
Documents\Test.xls,A1),FIND("]",CELL('C':\Documents and
Settings\Darrell.Roak.PUMP_EXCH\My Documents\Test.xls,A1))+1,32)

The result was the same: #NAME (formular result = volitile)

My worksheet Tab name is "Test Tab"

Am I supposed to substitute something for "]" ?

Don't make any changes with Peo's original formula. Just copy and paste
directly to the formula bar for that cell.
