Changing Sheet Names

N

NewToVB

I'm having trouble changing the names of my worksheets in my new workbook,
can someone help? Here is the code that I have. I'm using Visual Studio
2005, Excel 2007 and VB, here is some of the code I have. Thanks!

Dim LCV = New Excel._ExcelApplication
LCV = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Dim oBook As Excel.Workbook
Dim oBooks As Excel.Workbooks
Dim oSheets As Excel.Sheets
Dim oSheet1 As Excel.Worksheet

oBooks = LCV.Workbooks
oBook = oBooks.Add()
oSheets = oBook.Worksheets <----I get an error saying COM unhandled
oSheet1 = oSheets.Add
oSheet1.Name = "Portfolio"


I know it already has 3 sheets when you create a new workbook, but how do
you change those names?

I don't have Visual Studio, Excel 2007 or VB,
however, here is my guess as to how it should read...

LCV = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Dim oBook As LCV.Workbook
Dim oBooks As LCV.Workbooks
Dim oSheets As LCV.Sheets
Dim oSheet1 As LCV.Worksheet

oBooks = LCV.Workbooks
oBook = oBooks.Add()
oSheets = oBook.Sheets
oSheet1 = oSheets(1)
oSheet1.Name = "Portfolio"

Besides you may try this as you have not properly set the objects in your
code.

Dim LCV as Excel.Application
Dim oBook As Excel.Workbook
Dim oSheet1 As Excel.Worksheet

SET LCV = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
SET oBook = LCV.Workbooks.add
SET oSheet1 = oBook.Sheets.Add
oSheet1.Name = "Portfolio"
