All,
Is there a way (via formula) to get the name from a sheet tab for use as a cell in another page? (Something like referencing a cell, with ='Sheet1'!A5) but to get the name off the sheet tab itself?

Many thanks and


Best Regards,
Scott

Appreciate all the help everyone... but I've abandoned the idea of having a single dynamic cell that captures the name of a sheet, and serves as the hyperlink dynamically. I have read and re-read about a dozen times the help file on this, used your examples, and I still can't get this to work. If I have to set they hyperlinks manually, I guess that's what I'll have to do.

Incidentally, I could not even get the =HYPERLINK() function to work at all, to actually take me to a specified cell on a nother page, which I found really disappointing. I even copied the example out of help, set up the same pages, and it didn't work. So, I'll stick with what I've got for now...


Best Regards,
Scott
