I have this code that duplicated my main sheet and renames is based on a cell value. My problem I don't want to duplicate the sheet if it already exist, which is going to happen A LOT. I need help making this happen. Below is what I have so far.

Code:
Dim MySheetName As String 
    MySheetName = "TestSheet" 
    Sheets("MasterSheet").Copy After:=Sheets("MasterSheet") 
    ActiveSheet.Name = MySheetName
 

Excel Facts

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
Try
Code:
Dim MySheetName As String
Dim wsCheck As Worksheet

    MySheetName = "TestSheet"
    On Error Resume Next
    Set wsCheck = Sheets(MySheetName)
    On Error GoTo 0
    If wsCheck Is Nothing Then
      Sheets("MasterSheet").Copy After:=Sheets("MasterSheet")
      ActiveSheet.Name = MySheetName
    End If

What cell has the sheet name assigned to it. How does the cell get it's value.

That worked perfectly! Is there a way to get around the prompt for existing name ranges. I always would click yes.

sorry this is actually what I originally had. I didn't realize I posted one from the research I was doing.
Code:
Dim NameSheet As String

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    NameSheet = Sheets("Data Sheet").Range("ProductCode").Value
    Sheets("Data Sheet").Copy After:=Sheets("110060-B")
    ActiveSheet.Name = NameSheet
    
Sheets("Data Sheet").Select
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

I'm not sure of the circumstances here but try
Code:
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
  'Other code here
Application.DisplayAlerts = True

Thanks, works just like I wanted.

To help anyone who may have these same questions later, here was my final code.

Code:
Dim MySheetName As String
Dim wsCheck As Worksheet

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
        
    MySheetName = Sheets("Data Sheet").Range("ProductCode").Value
    On Error Resume Next
    Set wsCheck = Sheets(MySheetName)
    On Error GoTo 0
    If wsCheck Is Nothing Then
      Sheets("Data Sheet").Copy After:=Sheets("110060-B")
      ActiveSheet.Name = MySheetName
    End If
    
     Sheets("Data Sheet").Select

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
