[cindi]

Can I create a formula in a cell that will equal the
sheet tab name?

Thanks,

Cindi

Put in say, A1*:

=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,32)

(This'll extract the sheetname into A1.
But you need to save the file first)

*can be any cell in the sheet

Cindi, try this, file must be saved first for it to work

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