HI!

i think you can use this code:

Sub aver()
Dim nam As Integer
nam = 1 'this is the variable you can use to
select the sheet
Worksheets(nam).Activate
End Sub

You can reference a named worksheet by its number even if you re-named it. The shet number is the tab order from left to right, but in some cases it may be in creation order. if I whant to pull a sheet by number and not name I test the code with a Display sample to test if I get the sheet I want. Once I know that sheet1 is infact sheet 1 then I code "Worksheets("Sheet1") even if sheet 1 is named "Menu." JSW

Clarification ......

You said "Once I know that sheet1 is infact sheet 1 then I code Worksheets("Sheet1") even if sheet 1 is named "Menu."
I think you meant to say Worksheets(1) instead of Worksheets("Sheet1").


Worksheets("Sheet1") specifies the sheet named Sheet1.
If Sheet1 were the first sheet,then Worksheets(1) could be used instead of Worksheets("Sheet1").
If sheets are moved or added or deleted, the number that refers to a particular sheet can change.
