Re Name a Worksheet as a Date Format
Using a Macron how can you rename a Worksheet using a Date format. I have a
Macro that re-names a new Worksheet with whatever Date is in a certain cell, however the worksheet re-names not in Date format but in numeric format. Anyone suggest the code that I should insert? My current code is as below strSheetName = Worksheets(ActiveSheet.Name).Range("a8") Where A8 is the document date Thanks John |

Re Name a Worksheet as a Date Format
Hi John
Use the Format function ActiveSheet.Name = Format(Range("B1"), "dd-mm-yy") ActiveSheet.Name = Format(Now, "dd-mm-yy h-mm-ss") -- Regards Ron de Bruin (Win XP Pro SP-1 XL2000-2003) www.rondebruin.nl "John D O'Connor" wrote in message ...
