Let's say I have two worksheets. Each has a specific name, i.e. Person 1 &
Person 2. In the first Worksheet, I want a heading. The heading should match the tab's name, i.e. A1 would have a formula that would show "Person 1". So that if the Tab name were to change, the formula would also reflect the change. I know that there are codes for headers, i.e. &Tab. Is there a function/formula out there that I can use? |

See
Worksheet and Workbook names using the CELL() function http://www.mcgimpsey.com/excel/formu..._function.html or Changing Sheet Name to match cell, automatically http://www.mcgimpsey.com/excel/event...efromcell.html In article , "Charles Rodriguez" wrote: Let's say I have two worksheets.

I tried to use the macro that would take the value in a cell and change the
tab name. It didn't work for me. I don't think I understood fully as to where to put the code and how to activate it. The screen shots have the Apple version, I'm using Windows XP, Office 2003. I clicked on additional link on right, "where to put macros", but I didn't find it clear enough to follow.

It really isn't that different, but you can see a WinXL description he http://cpearson.com/excel/codemods.htm If you don't see the Project Browser when you open the VBE, choose View/Project Browser. I clicked on additional link on right, "where to put macros", but I didn't find it clear enough to follow. Constructive criticism is welcome, if you can let me know what needs to be improved. |
