Name the worksheet by a formula
 
Hi, I need to name 31 worksheets as "1-Jul", "2-Jul", "3-Jul"...... 31-Jul.
Can Excel automatically name the worksheets by a formula which i set in a
certain cell? Thanks for your help. =)

You can use a macro similar to:

For i = 1 To 31
Sheets(i).Name = i & "-Jul"
Next

It will name the first 31 sheets as you desire. You can create something
similar to name them based upon your cell value.

Hi Annie,
I would suggest you name your sheets with numbers instead of month
names. For dates format them like year-month-day to allow you to
sort your worksheets by name. Same applies to filenames in a directory.
