I have to copy data from one sheet to another. I am sending this program for
others to use and I don't know what they will name the sheet. I have a macro
that uses the ActiveSheet function right now, but I was hoping to get
something that is less sensitive and set up a variable for the entire sheet.
Thanks,
Kyle Kyburz

Hi Kyle

If it's not the active sheet, how would the code recognize it ? Is there
anything unique in it ? And where is the macro, how is it started ?

Best wishes Harald

I have a sheet called "Middle Sheet". In cell C1 I have the name of a
person. All other sheet's names in the workbook are a person's name. What I
would like is to take the name in C1 and put it into some sort of variable.
Then take that variable and open the sheet. So I can copy data into the
sheet.
thanks,

also, since I am sending this program out to be used by others I don't know
the names of the sheets. That is why I need it in variable form.

Sheets have a TAB name and a Code name.
The code name can only be changed in the VBE.

So you should use that name to reference your sheet

That would work except the people using the sheet need to be able to add
sheets, so I would not be able to reference. Could I create a prompt and
have the user type in the head name?
