worksheet Name and (Name) properties
 

There are two types of Name property of worksheet. For example, Sheet2
(DataSheet).
When I press F4 to see properties window, I have (name) Sheet2 and name
DataSheet.
In immediate window ? ActiveSheet.Name gives DataSheet.
How can I refer to (name) Sheet2. ? Activesheet.(Name) give error message.

Thanks, Mike510

worksheet Name and (Name) properties
 

Hi,

The (name) property is the codename of the sheet, the Name
property is the name you see on the Tab. If the Tab name
is "Tabname" and the codename is Sheet1:

Msgbox Worksheets("Tabname").Name

yields "Tabname"

and so does:

Msgbox Sheet1.Name
