Hi everyone:

I need to have the tab name for each sheet be the same a s the conten
of, let's say, cell (1,1).

I'm new at this and I solemly swear I did look at the object browse
but could not find which object refers to the worksheet tab.

thanks

If you want the cell to contains the tab name, use a formula like

=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,99)

If you want the tab name to be named the same as the contents of
cell A1, you need to use VBA:

Worksheets(1).Name = Range("A1").Text
