What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
Welcome to the forum.

You can use the following formula that will update in real time. Note that the file must be saved.

=TRIM(RIGHT(SUBSTITUTE(CELL("filename",A1),"]",REPT(" ",255)),255))

Or if you insist on the UDF maybe try this:
Code:
Public Function sheetname(ByVal target As Range)
Application.Volatile
sheetname = target.Worksheet.Name
End Function

Try Adding Application.Volatile as the first line of your Function.

Sorry! I didn't see that same response already posted.
