In a real world situation you would probably check to see if $sheet_index is the same as a stored previous value and print the sheet name if it isn't.

One thing to look out for is that the callback will only get called for sheets that contain data. So the sheet name of an empty worksheet wouldn't be printed with the above scheme. If this is a use case that you are interested in then you could also handle it by examining the sheet indices.

Hi John,
I did the same kind of thing before seeing your reply, except that i passed the $workbook,$sheet_index as a argument to another function where i found out the sheet name using the same logic..
but your approach is the simplest and apt one i was looking for...
guess i've a knack to complicate simple things.. :)

Thanks a lot for educating me..
