Hello,

I work for an online school and supervise 31 teachers. Twice a month, I run a report which gives me the number of hours each teacher has spent online. I output the report in an excel workbook. The output has 31 tabs for each teacher's information. The tabs are Sheet 1, Sheet 2, etc. I recorded a macro renaming each tab with the name of the teacher, so I wouldn't have to type each teacher's name every time I ran the report. Whe I tried to run the macro I got this error message:

Run-time error '9':

Subscript out of range

When I clicked on debug (I cannot debug VBA), I got this:

Sub SeatTabs()
'
' SeatTabs Macro
'

'
Sheets("1").Select
Sheets("1").Name = "Allen-Harmon"
Sheets("2").Select
Sheets("2").Name = "Allison"
Sheets("3").Select
Sheets("3").Name = "Baratko"
Sheets("4").Select
Sheets("4").Name = "Barot"
Sheets("5").Select
Sheets("5").Name = "BeisnerA"
Sheets("6").Select
Sheets("6").Name = "BeisnerD"
Sheets("Sheet7").Select
Sheets("Sheet7").Name = "BurchfieldG"
Sheets("Sheet8").Select
Sheets("Sheet8").Name = "BurchfieldT"
Sheets("Sheet9").Select
Sheets("Sheet9").Name = "Elliott"
Sheets("Sheet10").Select
Sheets("Sheet10").Name = "Fogle"
Sheets("Sheet11").Select
Sheets("Sheet11").Name = "Goubeaux"
Sheets("Sheet12").Select
Sheets("Sheet12").Name = "GriffithJ"
Sheets("Sheet13").Select
Sheets("Sheet13").Name = "GriffithM"
Sheets("Sheet14").Select
Sheets("Sheet14").Name = "Harris"
Sheets("Sheet15").Select
Sheets("Sheet15").Name = "Hellemann"
Sheets("Sheet16").Select
Sheets("Sheet16").Name = "HelsingerJ"
Sheets("Sheet17").Select
Sheets("Sheet17").Name = "HelsingerP"
Sheets("Sheet18").Select
Sheets("Sheet18").Name = "Jones"
Sheets("Sheet19").Select
Sheets("Sheet19").Name = "Koch"
Sheets("Sheet20").Select
Sheets("Sheet20").Name = "Leibold"
Sheets("Sheet21").Select
Sheets("Sheet21").Name = "Little"
Sheets("Sheet22").Select
Sheets("Sheet22").Name = "Lorz"
Sheets("Sheet23").Select
Sheets("Sheet23").Name = "MerkC"
Sheets("Sheet24").Select
Sheets("Sheet24").Name = "MerkJ"
Sheets("Sheet25").Select
Sheets("Sheet25").Name = "Miller"
Sheets("Sheet26").Select
Sheets("Sheet26").Name = "Mitter"
Sheets("Sheet27").Select
Sheets("Sheet27").Name = "Saylor"
Sheets("Sheet28").Select
Sheets("Sheet28").Name = "Seitz"
Sheets("Sheet29").Select
Sheets("Sheet29").Name = "Showalter"
Sheets("Sheet30").Select
Sheets("Sheet30").Name = "Statt"
Sheets("Sheet31").Select
Sheets("Sheet31").Name = "Swiger"
Range("M31").Select
End Sub


I don't know how to proceed at this point, or if the macro I need is possible. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, again.

Andy

Why did you do this over an hour after we tried to help?
Did you try my code from post#9, or am I just wasting my time the same way people on ExcelForum are?

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
