is there any way of inserting a worksheet that does not have a sheet number
on it. would be handy for using in macros.

hi
no. the sheet number is how excel keeps track of everything. even if you
change the name of the sheet to a non-number name, excel still keep the sheet
number in the background.
but people have aways gotten around this problem with macros. what problems
are you having?

You cannot name a sheet same as another so you must check to see if that
sheetname exists then add a sheet with an alternate name.

Post the code you have tried.

What pattern of name would you want?

Sheet insertion will NOT "overwrite" ANY sheet.
