Sheet Name question
I need to check for a worksheet's name, and need to be sure that all the
following example names will be valid: SHEET ....... Sheet......... or sheet guess that's a load of "sheet"! Can I do this reliably with UCase, or ? If (UCase(.Name) = Regards. |

Sheet Name question
You should be able to accomplish this with the "Ucase" command.
if ucase(Activesheet.name)="SHEET" THEN msgbox ("matches") "S G Booth" wrote: I need to check for a worksheet's name, and need to be sure that all the following example names will be valid: SHEET .......

Sheet Name question
Since the application doesn't allow for the same sheet name, regardless of
the character case, using UCase() would work well. You might want to use UCase() on both sides of a comparison, e.g., UCase(Sheets(i).Name) = UCase(MySheetVariableName) Good luck, VBA Dabbler "S G Booth" wrote: I need to check for a worksheet's name, and need to be sure that all the following example names will be valid: SHEET .......

Sheet Name question
Many thanks to you all.
It seems I must test for each of the 3 possibilities. However, I thought I had read somewhere that UCase could be used with a mixture of upper and lower case characters. Regards and thanks.

Sheet Name question
you didn't understand. You can use anyone of the the three tests I provided
the OR was not code, but prose. All three methods, as presented, are case insensitive. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "S G Booth" wrote in message ... Many thanks to you all.
