I have a database where 50 sheets come in each week. Right now they are names Sheets 1-50 but each sheet has a name on it (the names vary from week to week) - can I automatically get the sheet to name itself based on the name which is entered in cell c3?

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple

Use:
Code:
Sheets(1).Name = [C3]
Change the (1) to the appropriate worksheet number as required.
