Hi,

I have this simple UDF that takes a worksheet index number and returns the worksheet name :
VBA Code:
Function SheetFromIndex(index As Long) As String

    SheetFromIndex = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(index).Name

End Function

The idea is to enter the following formula array in a range (say range A1:A3 ) and return the corresponding worksheet names in each cell ... obviously, that doesn't work and returns #Value error
{=SheetFromIndex(ROW())}

{=SheetFromIndex(ROW(A1:A3))} didn't work either.

Thanks for your help.

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
