How do I link 'tab names' to a cell in Excell spreadsheets
 

I have received a path to link the tab name to a cell in Excel, however, it
repeats for each sheet. I would like each sheet to have its own tab name in
a cell. What I am using that does not do this is:
=RIGHT(CELL("filename"),LEN(CELL("filename"))-SEARCH(")",CELL("filename")))

Kathy, try this,

=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,255)

file must be saved first
