Hello. I have a system that generates reports and names the worksheets based on a numerical sequence xx-xxx (department number). I would like to add a report title in cell A3 with the department's name based on the worksheet name (department number). The code below works as long as all of the listed sheets are in the workbook. However, if the Worksheet("00-120") is not included the A3 value in Worksheet(00-100) will be "F&A" instead of "General".

Any suggestions on how to modify so that the Range("A3").Value only inserts a value if the Worksheet referenced in the line above it is included in the workbook? This is example lists four department codes but in reality there are approximately 95 worksheets.

Code:
On Error Resume Next

Worksheets("00-100").Activate
Range("A3").Value = "General"


Worksheets("00-120").Activate
Range("A3").Value = "F&A"


Worksheets("00-130").Activate
Range("A3").Value = "BA"


Worksheets("00-140").Activate
Range("A3").Value = "CMO"
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Try this

Code:
On Error Resume Next
Worksheets("00-100").Activate
If Worksheets("00-100").Activate = True Then
Sheets("00-100").Range("A3").Value = "General"
End If

Worksheets("00-110").Activate
If Worksheets("00-110").Activate = True Then
Sheets("00-110").Range("A3").Value = "F&A"
End If
Worksheets("00-120").Activate
If Worksheets("00-120").Activate = True Then
Sheets("00-120").Range("A3").Value = "F&A"
End If

Worksheets("00-130").Activate
If Worksheets("00-130").Activate = True Then
Sheets("00-130").Range("A3").Value = "BA"
End If

Worksheets("00-140").Activate
If Worksheets("00-140").Activate = True Then
Sheets("00-140").Range("A3").Value = "CMO"
End If

remove the Activate like
Code:
On Error Resume Next
Worksheets("00-100").Range("A3").Value = "General"

Worksheets("00-120").Range("A3").Value = "F&A"

Worksheets("00-130").Range("A3").Value = "BA"

Worksheets("00-140").Range("A3").Value = "CMO"
On Error GoTo 0

You say that you have 95 sheets?

It might work a little better to create a two-column table with your sheet names, and corresponding value to put in cell A3.
Then you can cycle through this table with little VBA code (instead of having to write 95 different blocks in VBA).
