I have a Sheet, whose codename is Sheet4, It's index is 1, and I named it "Start"
I can't seem to figure out how to link a cell on that sheet (A10) to a checkbox from a different sheet, using the codename (Sheet4)
It works fine if i use the sheet name, i.e. (Start!A10), but I would rather reference Sheet4, as the My sheet name "Start" may change.
Thanks

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
I am not sure how you can use the sheet's codename. It is a direct reference to an object, it's not an object's name.
But not to worry: like in all formulas - if you change the sheet name then the linked cell reference will be updated to the new sheet name.
Change the name Start to test it.
