I have a "menu" page in a workbook that contains a table of numeric values 1

the user to have the option of changing this list of values to a more
meaningful text description, then have the corresponding sheet tab names
change automatically.

Currently I have this VB code built into each of the 15 worksheets:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
* * ActiveSheet.Name = Sheets("Xref").Range("D11").Value
End Sub

This code only works if I go to each tab afterwards & make some other type
of change. *Clearly I am missing something here. *Can someone help?

Hi,

I have created the sheet "Main" in excel like the following:
Col A Col B
Sheet Index Sheet Name
1 Main
2 Export
3 Report2
4 Report3
5 Report4
6 Report5
7 Report6

and written this sheet change macro.
You can try this and edit according to your requirement.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rngShtNames As Range
Dim i As Integer

If Target.Column < 2 Then Exit Sub

For i = 1 To Me.Cells(Me.Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row - 1
On Error Resume Next
Sheets(i).Name = Me.Cells(i + 1, 2).Value
If Err.Number < 0 Then
MsgBox "Can't change the name of " & Me.Cells(i, 2).Value
End If
Next i
End Sub
