Setting the CodeName of a new worksheet in the VBE Editor
 

Hi,

When I programatically add a new worksheet in VBA, is there a way to
programatically set the CodeName property ...

So instead of showing as Sheet1 in the VB Editor 'Project Explorer', the new
sheet shows as what I want it to be.

This is for Excel 2003

thanks for any help

Paul,

When the sheet is created it is the active sheet so this should be the next
line after creation.

ActiveSheet.Name = "Your Name"

Hi Philip,

To change the sheet's codename, try something like:

'=============
Public Sub Tester()
ThisWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents _
(Worksheets("Sheet2").CodeName).Name = "aName"
End Sub
'<<=============

Worksheets.Add
With ActiveSheet
.Parent.VBProject.VBComponents(.CodeName) _
.Properties("_CodeName") = "wsNewSheet"

Thanks all,

In the end I found it was fairly simple like this:
thisworkbook.VBProject.VBComponents("Sheet1").Name = "Phil"
