    Question Previous Sheet

    Hello.
    How can I find out the name of the previous sheet (from the left) if all the sheets have been renamed and no longer have their original names Sheet1, Sheet2, ...
    Thanks.

    This is what you can use:

    Then, for real use, you can valorize a variable instead of the Debug.Print and add a MsgBox if there is no previous sheet.

    Sorry, no idea how this can be done with a simple formula; for sure needs at least an UDF.
    Try googling "previous sheet formula excel".

    Re: Previous Sheet

    Add a named range, via Name Manager, called Sheetnames
    =REPLACE(GET.WORKBOOK(1),1,FIND("]",GET.WORKBOOK(1)),"")


    The depending on excel version either of these formula.

    =IFERROR(INDEX(SHEETNAMES,1,MATCH(TEXTAFTER(CELL("Filename",$A$1),"]"), SHEETNAMES,0)-1),"")
    =IFERROR(INDEX(SHEETNAMES,1,MATCH(MID(CELL("Filename",$A$1),FIND("]",CELL("Filename",$A$1))+1,LEN(CELL("Filename",$A$1))), SHEETNAMES,0)-1),"")
    Cheers
