hi
no. the sheet number is how excel keeps track of everything. even if you
change the name of the sheet to a non-number name, excel still keep the sheet
number in the background.
but people have aways gotten around this problem with macros. what problems
are you having?
Hi
the macro insets a new sheet then copies another sheet onto it. i then
rename the sheet. when you try to do this again the macro looks for the
original sheet number and overwrites the information in it. it sounds like
what I want to do is not possible.
