Similar but keep in mind that if you change the name of the tab A2 will not change right away ... you have to select another sheet and come back and A2 will change then.

How to use. Put in A2 : =sname()
Function sname() As String
sname = ActiveSheet.Name
End Function

Non VBA solution:
Formula in cell. Workbook must be saved for this to work.
=RIGHT(CELL("filename"),LEN(CELL("filename"))-FIND("]",CELL("filename")))
This changes immediately if you change the tab name.

kaqkns,
Glad you were able to get the help you needed. Be sure to mark your thread solved using the thread tools at the top of the page. Could you please change the name of your thread to something like "Sheet name in Cell value" or something like that to reflect the topic of the thread. If you don't know how and would like for me to do it let me know.
