Tom,
Here's an alternative deriving the sheetname from the codename For bytSheetLoopCounter = 1 To 12 If bytSheetLoopCounter < 10 Then strMonthNumber = "0" & bytSheetLoopCounter Else strMonthNumber = bytSheetLoopCounter End If strChartSheetName = "cshtMonth" & strMonthNumber & "Dur" Worksheets(CStr(ActiveWorkbook.VBProject. _ VBComponents(strChartSheetName). _ Properties("Name"))).Select Next bytSheetLoopCounter -- HTH Bob Phillips ... looking out across Poole Harbour to the Purbecks (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "Tom Deiley" wrote in message ... I originally was going to reference the sheet name, but I'm not the only person who will be using this workbook. I realized that another recipient of this workbook could change the sheet name, causing the code would fail. "Bob Phillips" wrote in message ... Tom, Why not use the sheet name? Dim aryMonths() aryMonths = Array("", "Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", _ "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec") For bytSheetLoopCounter = 1 To 12 For bytSheetLoopCounter = 1 To 12 If bytSheetLoopCounter < 10 Then strMonthNumber = "0" & bytSheetLoopCounter Else strMonthNumber = bytSheetLoopCounter End If strChartSheetName = aryMonths(bytSheetLoopCounter) & " Duration" Sheets(strChartSheetName).Select Next bytSheetLoopCounter -- HTH Bob Phillips ... looking out across Poole Harbour to the Purbecks (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "Tom Deiley" wrote in message ... Here's the scenario: In my workbook, I have a series of 12 chartsheets which have the names "Jan Duration" through "Dec Duration". These sheets graph monthly information. In the VBE, these sheets are named "cshtMonth01Dur" through "cshtMonth12Dur", so that I can loop from 1 to 12 and update the chart title on each of the sheets. Here's a portion of my code: For bytSheetLoopCounter = 1 To 12 If bytSheetLoopCounter < 10 Then strMonthNumber = "0" & bytSheetLoopCounter Else strMonthNumber = bytSheetLoopCounter End If strChartSheetName = "cshtMonth" & strMonthNumber & "Dur" Sheets(strChartSheetName).Select Next bytSheetLoopCounter When it gets to the 'Select' line, it triggers "run-time error '9': Subscript out of range" I know that the 'Sheets(strChartSheetName).Select' should read something like 'Sheets("Jan Duration").Select', but I can't see how to retrieve the name of a sheet when it's referenced by a variable. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Tom |
