Is it possible for a macro to delete any sheet that within a workbook that does not match a specific list of sheets. For example a workbook will always have Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3, Sheet4... but it can have many other sheets added to it. The names of the sheets can be completely different however the sheets that I want to keep will always have the same name.

Code:
Sheets(Array("Sheet 1", "Sheet 2")).Visible = False
How do I convert the above to using Sheet Codes Names, Sheet1 and Sheet2?
Want to ensure my code will work if the user changes the sheet name.
Any quick way of deleting all named ranges within a given workbook? I can loop over them, but it takes forever. (I've got about 20,000 names in total).
Turning the normal things off doesn't do much good either (e.g. auto-calculating, events, etc)
I tried a simple for I loop to remove all Named Ranges in a workbook, Unforunately I got a subscript out of Range Error. Is anybody aware of a way this can be done with code?
For i = 1 To 4
ActiveWorkbook.Names(i).Delete
Next i
I'm trying to get a macro to work that will delete a number of worksheets that are located in between a sheet called 'start' and one called 'end'
I have got this code - which deletes both 'start' & 'end' too, i've been struggling to get it to work so it doesn't
Code:
Sub Macro_delete_worksheets()
Dim i As Long
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
[Code]...
Checks if there is a sheet name and if there is a sheet of that name then it is deleted.
the sheet name is a number entered through an inputbox and "Average"
In writing Macros with Excel 2003, is there a way to have all other worksheets deleted except the present one, other than listing every other sheet?
i have a procedure that imports data & splits it by staff name, creating a separate sheet for each person
i wanted to ensure if the code was run twice it wouldn't throw up errors trying to name sheets with names already used, so used the following code to delete all sheets apart from the 2 sheets containing my base data (sheet names for these are IDs and base data)
Sub ClearUpSheets()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each ws In Worksheets
If ws.Name <> "control sheet" Or ws.Name <> "IDs" Then ws.Delete
Next ws
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub
unfortunately, apart from a chart sheet (which i actually want deleted) this code deletes all sheets including the 2 i don't want deleted
I need a simple macro to delete all sheets in a workbook except one that is called "START"
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a File with many sheets (40 - 60) and I'm trying to eliminate the sheets I don't want. The names of the sheets are all random, but in common they have a three letter code for a country.
The following is the code that I have -
Sub Deletesheets()
Dim x As Integer
Application.ScreenUpdating = 0
On Error Resume Next
For x = 1 To Sheets.Count
Sheets(x).Select
I'm hoping to save any sheet that has either CAN or USA the name and delete the rest.
Besides being inefficient, my code errors out because I've got my IF's and ELSE in the wrong place, but I can finagle it to work.
I’m would like to delete some sheets in my workbook using a macro. The problem is that
I won’t know in advance the name of these sheets.
I was thinking using a code like the following one to delete the sheets but the problem is that Excel expect a sheet name at this part of the code since it is expecting the sheet name.
Sub Delete_Active_Diagram()
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Dim i As Integer
Dim strSheetName As String
Dim blnFound As Boolean
strSheetName = "Average Sales Per Week" & "" & Sheets(i + 1).Range("C3")
i = Sheets.Count
For j = 1 To i
If Sheets(j).Name = strSheetName Then
blnFound = True
Exit For
End If
Next
If blnFound = False Then Exit Sub
If blnFound = True Then strSheetName.Delete
End Sub
Is there a way to cope this problem, or should i think about another way to do it. Like selecting each sheet I would like to delete and then delete the selected sheets.
By the way. All the sheets I try to delete a Charts Sheets. Maybe there is a way to delete all the charts in my workbook.
I have two sheets. One of them has a long list of numbers and the other one has a shorter list, all of which are also on the first sheet. How can I automatically delete the second sheets numbers from the first sheet?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm pretty new to coding from scratch in VB, and I've got some code that should loop, but it doesn't. The idea eventually will be to download a spreadsheet, make a new sheet for every item in a range, and then filter for each of those items and put it in the right sheet. I have to code to create the sheets (lightly modified from something I got here)
Sub CreateSheets()
'Written by Barrie Davidson
For Each c In Sheets("FilterList").Range("b2:b74")
Sheets.Add
ActiveSheet.Name = Right(c.Value, 30)
Next c
End Sub
That's working well, so I've tried to modify it so that it will also delete sheets based on the same range. I've gotten it to delete the first item in the range, but then it stops.
For Each c In Sheets("FilterList").Range("b2:b74")
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Worksheets(c.Value).Delete
ActiveSheet.Name = Right(c.Value, 30)
Next c
End Sub
By the way, I don't know what the ActiveSheet.Name = Right(c.Value, 30) line does, but I put it in since it was in the code I was modifying.
Is there a way (via Menues and or VBA) to cancel the pop-up of the Alert Window when the user deletes a sheet(s) ?

I have a excel file with more than 10 sheets and every sheet has a title on its first three rows.
I want to delete first three rows in all sheets except parent sheet .
Here is my macro
MyFileName = Sheets("Macros").Range("B1").Value
MyFileNameTwo = Sheets("Macros").Range("B2").Value
Sheets("Blank").Select
Sheets.Add After:=Sheets("Blank")

Issue with array that's bolded The way it is set up is to rename the 3rd sheet to MyFileName and rename the last sheet to MyFileNameTwo. The file names will remain constant. They will always be the 3rd and last sheets, but the number in between will vary. Is there anyway to select the 3rd sheet through the last sheet to delete these? When I use the array it wants sheet names but those are based on multiple variables in other workbooks.
I have to load the data in Sheet 3 but before I do that I have to make sure that any organisation name that already exist in either Sheet 1 or Sheet 2 should be removed from Sheet 3.

Sheet 3 has 664 Organisation Names

I've just set up a workbook full of pivot tables linked to an access database. The book will be used by several individuals interested in both the statistics presented in the tables and in the details underlying them. My concern is the accumulation of the extraneous sheets generated by drilling down to details. Is there any code I could use that would delete these sheets as soon as the user leaves them?
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to name a new tab without knowing its name. For instance, when I create a new tab, it could be named "Sheet2" or "Sheet3", but there is sometimes no way to know. Is there a way to edit the name of that new tab without refering to it by name?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a workbook that I'm currently designing and I've just realised that I need to delete a few sheets, paste in some new template sheets and rename them. The problem is, I've already completed my summary sheets and I don't want to have to redo the values. Essentially, I just want to (temporarily) turn off auto-updating of formulas when cells / sheets are changed/moved/deleted.
For practical purposes: I need to delete the sheet named "Jan", paste in a new sheet "MonthTemp", rename "MonthTemp" to "Jan" and have all my formulas not updated (e.g. still referencing "Jan" instead of "#REF!")
I need to stop users from adding and deleting sheets in a workbook
My idea was obviously to disable the command bars to add or delete sheets in open event and then put back in before close.
But then i thought...whats stopping them from right clicking the sheet tab and inserting a sheet, can i remove that menu to...?
I also wasnt sure if there were short cut keys to add or delete sheets.?
Some of my users use excel alot so i want to account for an tips they know that i might not.
whenever you want to delete a sheet, excel would prompt you to ask you if you are sure you want to delete the sheet. im making a vba so that the sheets will delete upon workbook close, but i dont want to be prompted everytime to be sure to delete it when running the vba macro. Also, i would like to avoid being asked to save any changes to my workbook

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a master workbook, meeting1.xls which is used on a daily basis. All of the macros saved in this workbook naturally refer to Windows("Meeting1.xls").Activate.
However, I want to be able to open Meeting1.xls save it as a new name (for today's details) and then populate it.....as well as have the Macros pick up that new file name (rather than always looking for Meeting1.xls.)
I've tried saving Meeting1 as a template file and that didn't seem to work either. When I save it as a new name, the macro always searches for the original name.
I have a macro which creates and names worksheets. I am making a button which also deletes the latest of these created worksheets, but doesn't delete other sheets. I am getting the error: Run-time error '424': Object Required. Here is my code for deleting the sheet:

I currently have a macro setup that puts Auto-Sum data in the row below the bottom-most row of data. What code would I need to format this Auto-Sum row with the following parameters automatically...
1. Merge & center F & G in the Auto-Sum row with the text "Totals".
2. Change the row height of the Auto-Sum row to 44 pixels.
3. Center the vertical alignment of the Auto-Sum row.
4. Put the thickest border around the Auto-Sum row in cells A-K.
below you will see my macro. I have a slight problem, everything works perfect, except when I change file names. Basically I keep an electronic backup every day of the file I create. So today's file will be named DOH031907, tomorrow DOH032007, Wednesday DOH 032107, etc. etc. I use the same sheet, including the same Macro every day so it does the same thing. Basically everywhere you see "DOH031907Test.xls" I want it to put the current workbook file name there. I'm new to this kind of stuff but it seems like there is an easy solution.

Without using VBA code, is there a way to display or find the worksheet number of the active worksheet you are viewing? All my sheets have names, and I have a lot of them.
When I want to loop through a set of them with code, I want to know what numbers they are beforehand.
How do I get sheets names automatically? I.E. I want to get in A2 sheet number 2 name. In A3, sheet number 3 name...
View 1 Replies View RelatedOn sheet1 of my workbook I have a table containing the colums : Title, Name, Street+nr, postal code + city of some people, Telephone, email.
I would like to do the following (by clicking a button perhaps?)
- For all the records in my table on sheet1 I would like to insert a new sheet in my workbook named to their names (as in sheet1).
- The new sheet must be an existing sheet that I've already made the content (a kind of expence sheet)
- Somewhere on the top of the sheet I would like to have their names , titles en addresses (fetched from sheet1)
