good evening,

I use the following code:-

Sub MyRename()
Sheets(2).Name = Sheets(2).Range("d1") & "-Codes"
End Sub

which does work, but I want it run as soon as D1 is changed without pressing f9 or running macro.

could some cool coder please sort?

Excel Facts

Wildcard in VLOOKUP
Use =VLOOKUP("Apple*" to find apple, Apple, or applesauce
It's be a worksheet event that triggers when D1 changes. Google worksheet event.

Good Morning C Moore,

I therefore politely request if someone out there can assist.

more than welcome.

my issue with VB is that am fine with 'record macro' and can tweak a wee bit, but mostly I depend on Mr Excel & the 'Wizards Of VB' (IE YOU) to sort.

often I have the idea, but lack the 'how to'.

For example.

I am trying to find some VB that will email a certain worksheet contained in a workbook. but no look so far :(

Anyhoo..have a great day
