Hi, I'm using the following code to take the names located in a range, make a copy of a template worksheet called "blank", duplicate that template the number of required times, then rename the new worksheets with the list of names in the previously stated range. Two questions though: first, if there's already a worksheet with the same name as one that's in the list that i'm trying to create then the macro errors out. Is there a way to tell it to just skip that name if it's already being used for another tab? Second, instead of defining the range as "Range("b17:b19"), can i reference a Table so that as the list expands and contracts I dont need to manually update the range in the code?

Sub CreateAndNameWorksheets()
Dim c As Range

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each c In Sheets("Start").Range("b17:b19")
Sheets("blank").Copy After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
With c
ActiveSheet.Name = .Value
.Parent.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=c, Address:="", SubAddress:= _
"'" & .Text & "'!A1", TextToDisplay:=.Text
End With
Next c
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
I figured out the answer to my second question! Hopefully there's a way to solve for the duplicates that I mentioned above
