I have built a function that reads the name of a worksheet and displays it in
the cell. Once you rename the worksheet, however, the function does not
update. Does anyone know how to invoke the updating of this function when
the event of renaming the sheet occurs? Also, I would like to use this same
function on many different worksheets so it can't look update the functions
on all sheets with the name of the one activesheet.

Thanks,
joe

Public Function wname()
Application.Volatile
wname = Application.Caller.Parent.Name
End Function

You can do this with worksheet functions:
