#Adding new worksheet problem

S

Sandeep Lohchab

Sir,

How to add new worksheet on right side of current selected worksheet? When I
press Shift+F11, new worksheet comes on left side, but I want it to appear
on right side. Another situation is that when I have many worksheet
opened, like 15+, then I have to press Ctrl+PageUp/PageDown many times to
select extreme left/right worksheet. Can there be a shortcut to make this
happen?

Also please tell where do I paste these(written below) in a code module for
setting focus on the Name box and for renaming worksheet. Also tell how to
create shortcut for these.

Thanks in advance.
Warm Regards.

The F2 key will cause Excel to enter Edit mode. If the "Edit In Cell"
option is enabled, focus will be in the edit mode of the cell. If
"Edit In Cell" is not enabled, focus goes to the formula bar. For your
other questions, you can only address them with code. To set focus in
the Name dialog, paste the following in a code module:


Public Declare Function SetFocus Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long) As
Long
Public Declare Function FindWindow Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowA" _
(ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As
Long
Public Declare Function FindWindowEx Lib "user32" Alias
"FindWindowExA" _
(ByVal hWnd1 As Long, ByVal hWnd2 As Long, _
ByVal lpsz1 As String, ByVal lpsz2 As String) As Long

Sub SetFocusNameBox()
Dim Res As Long
Res = SetFocus( _
FindWindowEx( _
FindWindowEx( _
FindWindow("XLMAIN", Application.Caption) _
, 0, "EXCEL;", vbNullString) _
, 0, "combobox", vbNullString))
End Sub



To rename a sheet, use

Sub RenameWorksheet()
Application.CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=889).Execute
End Suib

You can assign SetFocusNameBox and RenameWorskheet to the shortcut
keys of your choice.

Hi,

To go to the last sheet, press Ctrl+G and in the reference box, type
sheet3!A1, this will take you to cell A1 of sheet3. This assumes that the
name of the last sheet is sheet3. This should be faster than the Ctrl+Page
up/down
