    Use the Sheets collections.
    VB Code:
    1. Dim strName As String
    2. strName = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(1).Name 'Assumes that the sheet you want is the first one in the Sheets collection.

    Here is something to play with ...
    Code:
    Option Explicit
    
    Sub Macro1()
        
        Dim aSheet As Worksheet
        Dim tstr As String
        
        For Each aSheet In Sheets
            tstr = aSheet.Name
            MsgBox tstr
        Next
    
    End Sub
    Blessings in abundance,
    All the Best,
    & ENJOY!
