Default "Naming a worksheet" question

Can the name of a worksheet reference a given cell in that worksheet so that
the cell name is also the name of the worksheet? Note that the cell drives
the worksheet name and not vice versa. Thanks.

You need VBA for that.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Const WS_RANGE As String = "A1"

On Error GoTo ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then
With Target
me.Name = .Value
End With
End If

ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

'This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be
'placed in the appropriate worksheet code module, not a standard
'code module. To do this, right-click on the sheet tab, select
'the View Code option from the menu, and paste the code in.
