Default reference to sheets


Hello,

I have five sheets and they are named by weeks (ex: 5-7-2006 to
5-13-2006, 5-14-2006 to 5-20-2006, etc.). In another sheet, Weekly
table, I need to put these sheet names in the first row. Basically,
whatever name you give to the five sheets, it should automatically
update the first row of the Weekly table sheet.

I tried to do thru macro: Go to the first sheet, right click and
select Rename and select Copy and paste the name of the sheet in the
first row (A1); Go to the second sheet, right click and select Rename
and select Copy and paste the second sheet name in A2. If I change the
name of the sheet, the macro looks for the old name of the sheet. So
this doesn't work

How can I automatically update A1, A2, etc with the name of the sheets
that I give in Excel?

Please help me find a formula (no VBA)!!

Thanks,

Ann

To the best of my knowledge there is no such formula. VBA is the only option
for that one...

I could be wrong, but I am pretty certain that this can't be done
without VBA
