Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
Just to let you know you can refer to sheets in two different ways like:

Sheets(1)
Sheets(2)

Now Sheets(1) is the sheet in the far left position on your tab bar
Now Sheets(2) is the next sheet to the right and so on.

And the second way to refer to sheets is by their name like:
Sheets("Sheet1") Or Sheets("Sheet2")

Or:
Sheets("George") Or Sheets("Home")

If you use the name of the sheet then name has to be in quotes.
Just thought you may want to know.

Yes always apprieciate any help you can give, thanks My Aswer Is This :)

Just one question, I have numbered my sheets (01) instead of (1) so they run in order as I have more than 10 sheets.

When I try to refer to sheets as Sheets(01) it won't accept the 0 and changes back to Sheets(1) does this make a difference or effect the code in any way?

regards

Your not able to renumber your sheets.

Sheets(1) is the sheet on the far left side of the tab bar no matter what you name it.

Explain more about "you" want to run them in order"

You can rename your sheets

If you mean you want to loop through your sheets it would look like this

For i= 1 to Sheets.count

Sheets.count means last sheet.

So the loop from go from 1 to last sheet.


Does that help?

If you mean you want to reorder them on your Tab Bar then:
1. Click on the Tab and drag it to the right or left.
That will now change their order.
One on far left is 1 next one to right is 2 and so on.

You should be able to get 01 to appear on the sheet name tab, but when referring to it in code you would have to use Sheets("01"), with the numeric digits enclosed in quote marks. While the tab name appears as numbers, it is a string data type and all string data will generally need quote marks when used in code, unless you put them in variables. Variables do not use quote marks, but may represent data which does use quote marks. The bit about the variables is just additional info, not to be confused with the explanation of using the 01 in code.

Hi, Thank you for your input,

Sorry, I should have said it was in the vba editor project window I was refering to where I have renumbered my sheets.
For example I have over 10 sheets, on the first sheet I have named the Tab Bar as Data and in the vba project window I have renamed to Sheet01(Data) instead of Sheet1(Data) and Shet02(Sort) instead of Sheet2 and so on.
So they all run in order in the project window with Sheet 10 and above at the bottom of the list.

There is no problem as such,

I was just wondering why when I try to refer to sheets as Sheets(01) it won't accept the 0 and changes back to Sheets(1)? does this make a difference or effect the code in any way?

Hi,

I am trying to write my own code for the first time and I am trying to use the 'For i=' in the code to help me understand how it works and wondered if I give an example of what I am trying to do and post it tomorrow as I am off out to the cinema tonight to watch Jamanji, if you might be able to help with this?

Regards
