I am trying to make a personal macro so that whenever I want to change the tablestyle of the table I have the active cell in, it will change it to the style I've designated in my code.

For example:

VBA Code:
Sub OrangeTable()
    Range("B4").Select
    ActiveSheet.ListObjects("Table1").TableStyle = "TableStyleMedium3"
End Sub

This code works if the table's name happens to be Table1, but I want to apply the style to the table no matter what the name is.

How can I make this so that the table name is no longer a consideration?

VBA Code:
Sub Get_Table_Name()

ans = ActiveCell.ListObject.Name
ActiveSheet.ListObjects(ans).TableStyle = "TableStyleMedium3"
End Sub
