sheet tab value/nav menu
Folks...
Bit of ambitious challenge here! I have 15 sheets. In cell A1 of each sheet the user will enter a name eg John. I want the sheet tab for sheet 1 to change to say John. Sheet 2 tab say Phil etc... Also, in cell A2 I'm trying build a drop down navigation menu that uses the names of the sheet tabs? I'm struggling at the moment! Any help appreciated... Gordon... |

sheet tab value/nav menu
Hi Corey...
Just checking: Does this code go into the sheet code, wokbook code or a module. Also, does this work in 2007 when sheet tabs aren't visible? Will this also work if the value in cell A1 is determined by a validation drop down menu? It didn't work for me...yet! Cheers Gordon.

This goes under the ThisWorkbook module:
Option Explicit Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Cells.Count 1 Then Exit Sub 'one cell at a time End If If Intersect(Sh.Range("A1"), Target) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub End If On Error Resume Next Sh.Name = Target.Value If Err.Number < 0 Then MsgBox "Rename failed!" Err.Clear End If On Error GoTo 0 End Sub And for navigating the sheets: http://contextures.com/xlToolbar01.html or http://contextures.com/xlToolbar01b.html From Debra Dalgleish's site.
