I'm not sure I follow you -- The slash (/) is an illegal character in a
sheet name. If you even try to name a sheet 21/09/2009 the slashes will be
ignored & you'll wind up with 21092009 as the sheet name.
Do you actually mean that you have the date entered into a cell on the
sheet, whatever the sheet name (on the sheet's tab at the bottom) might
happen to be? And that you want a cell on a different sheet to display that
date+one day? Or are you asking for something else?
Please give a more specific description of exactly what you need to achieve.

Sorry I've not done a good job of describing what I'm trying to achieve!
Each sheet in the diary represents a week.
I produce new sheets by copying an original sheet called let's say 1 Jan 2009(point taken about illegal characters). There is also a cell in the original sheet containing 1 Jan 2009.
I then have to rename the new sheet 8 jan 2009 and then change the content of the cell to 8 Jan 2009 as well.
I want to be able to automatically change the date in the cell and the name of the sheet either as i copy them or by creating a formula that calculates the date in the sheet by how many copies of the sheet have been made and somehow changes the name of the sheet as well.
I can create a series of dates on a single sheet at weekly intervals but not across several sheets.
I suspect the renaming of the sheets is a separate issue.
Is that any clearer? I'm worried it's not!
Thanks for your help Bob
