I have a spreadsheet that has many Tabs. I have named each of the tabs with a unique name. I would now like to insert that tab Name into each worksheet in location A1 without having to retype the name each time.

TIA

Round to nearest half hour?
Use =MROUND(A2,"0:30") to round to nearest half hour. Use =CEILING(A2,"0:30") to round to next half hour.
How about
Code:
Sub xerxers()
   Dim Ws As Worksheet
   
   For Each Ws In Worksheets
      Ws.Range("A1").Value = Ws.name
   Next Ws
End Sub

Paste it into a normal module & on then in excel press Alt F8, select the macro & click run

I apologize for being so dumb but I presume a normal module is a worksheet or is it something else.
I have copied it into a worksheet, selected ALT F8 but the subroutine does not appear.

The other option is to put this formula in A1 of each sheet
=TRIM(RIGHT(SUBSTITUTE(CELL("filename"),"]",REPT(" ",100)),100))

Once again thank you for your response, did a Google search and was able to get everything running just fine.
