In a UDF I am able to determine the address of the calling cell using
Code:
Application.Caller.Address
Is there something similar that I can use to determine the name of the sheet and workbook?

Thanks

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
Try:

Code:
wSheet = Application.Caller.Parent.Name
wBook = Application.Caller.Worksheet.Parent.Name

Or, variations on Dante's code
Code:
Debug.Print "Sheet", Application.Caller.Worksheet.Name
Debug.Print "Workbook", Application.Caller.Parent.Parent.Name
