Microsoft Excel Tutorial: Renaming 31 Worksheets in Excel using VBA | MrExcel Podcast.

Welcome to another episode of the MrExcel podcast. In this episode, we will be discussing how to rename 31 worksheets in Excel. If you watched our previous episode, you saw how to create 30 copies of a worksheet using CONTROL-drag. However, now the worksheet names need to be renamed, and there has to be a better way than manually renaming each one.

I know some of you may not be fans of VBA, but trust me, this trick is worth it. First, press ALT+F11 to access VBA, then press CONTROL+G to open the Immediate window. Next, type in "FOR i = 1 TO 31:" and press enter. Then, type "WORKSHEETS i.NAME = "DAY " & i & ":" and press enter again. Finally, type "NEXT" and press enter one last time. That's it! Your worksheets will now be renamed with the day and corresponding number.

If you don't want the word "day" in the worksheet names, you can simply replace it with the number by typing "i" instead. This trick is not only useful for renaming 31 worksheets, but it can also be applied to any number of worksheets. Just make sure to adjust the code accordingly. However, if you happen to be in a month with less than 31 days, you may encounter an error. But don't worry, by the time you get to the error, the renaming process will already be complete.

So there you have it, a simple and efficient way to rename multiple worksheets in Excel using VBA. This trick is especially helpful for those who work with large amounts of data and need to quickly organize their worksheets. Thank you for tuning in to this episode of the MrExcel podcast.
