Default New Sheet

Prior to adding the sheet, get the name. Then go through
the worksheets collection testing for the name property.
Something like:
For each wks in Thisworkbook.Worksheets
If wks.Name=strNewName then
strNewName = some other name
blnDuplicate = True
End If
Next wks
If blnDuplicate = False Then
'Add your new sheet and rename it.
End If

Good luck.
Geof.

Default New Sheet

Hello,

I get an error if the workbook already contains the
worksheet "myname". How do I title the sheet "myname1" if
it already exists or "myname2" if they both do ... etc.

Thanks for your help.
