    rename sheets according to column A names.

    Hi,
    I have a excel file with product names

    I want a macro that will auto generate sheets based on the names of Column A that I select and will name then accordingly.

    I am uploading a sheet for reference. In the example file all my names are in Column A of the tab DATA , and I have all the sheets with the names,
    I want the macro in such a way that I select the names and run the macro and that many sheets will be generate with that name.

    Thanks and regards,
    Me

    Hi fatalcore,

    Try the following code and report back. As it is, the code will create a new, blank worksheet and rename it based on the text within the active, selected cell. I don't have Excel 2007 so I couldn't test against your file, but it should work.

    Hi bigbas,
    The code works ok ...but it only adds one sheet based on selected cell but not cells(as you mentioned in your post).
    can it be a bit tailored made to work on selected CELLS ? That will do my job.
    thanks in advance.

    Hi bigbass.
    It's working great...but it's creating the pages back side..I mean on the left side instead of creating on the right side....It will be great if the pages generate on the right side sequentially.
    thanks in advance.
