Is there any way to READ the Code Name of a worksheet (Sheet11, for example) into a formula in Excel?

I don't need to write to the Code Name or otherwise manipulate it; I just need to pull it out as a string and then yank out the numerical portion, all without VBA.

Thanks!

Upon testing, this returns the sheet position, not the number in the name of the sheet. Below, my sheets are ordered: Sheet1, Sheet3, Sheet2, Sheet4.
