Read worksheet name, use as variable

1 New Member
Probably an easy question for some. I'm trying to read the worksheet name, then use that name as a variable reference. Got this to work as a function with evaluate:

function A()
A = "255 plus characters"
end function
sub callit()
evaluate(active sheet.name & "()")
end sub
but the 255 char limit ended that...

basically, looking for a more elegant way to write:
A = "255 plus characters"
B = "255 plus characters"
if activesheet.nam e = "A" then A
if activesheet.nam e = "B" then B

note: A and B are sql statements, so i'm trying to dynamically choosing the appropriate query for a given active sheet.

Hello, I am using late binding in a managed VC++ .NET 2003 application. I used KB 302902 (for C#) as a starting point and converted it to managed C++. I built a managed class that is intantiated by a form. The class can instantiate Excel, open a new workbook, add a new worksheet, get a range, and put some data in it. So, I have basically just duplicated what KB 302902 does, except I am working out of a managed C++ class. The problem...

Greetings This is one of those Access is not closing Excel problems. The first time through the code works fine. The second time there is a problem. After lots of combinations, I finally determined that if I take out the line that copies the temp array to cells in a worksheet, Access will close the Excel file. If the line is there, Excel remains open and blocks more runs of the same procedure. If I close Access, Excel gets closed. Looks like...

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
