I have a macros that generates a number of workbooks. I would like the macros, at the start of the run, to check if the file contains 2 spreadsheets, and delete them if they exist.
The code I tried was:
If Sheet.Name = "ID Sheet" Then
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Sheet.Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End If
If Sheet.Name = "Summary" Then
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Sheet.Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End If
This code is returning an error:
run time error #424, object required.
I probably have the wrong formatting, but if there is an easier way to do this, it would be very useful.
Consider:
Sub SheetKiller()
Dim s As Worksheet, t As String
Dim i As Long, K As Long
K = Sheets.Count
For i = K To 1 Step -1
t = Sheets(i).Name
If t = "ID Sheet" Or t = "Summary" Then
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Sheets(i).Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End If
Next i
End Sub
NOTE:
Because we are deleting , we run the loop backwards.
Try this code:
For Each aSheet In Worksheets
Select Case aSheet.Name
Case "ID Sheet", "Summary"
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
aSheet.Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Select
Next aSheet
You could use On Error Resume Next
then there is no need to loop through all the sheets in the workbook.
With On Error Resume Next
the errors are not propagated, but are suppressed instead. So here when the sheets does't exist or when for any reason can't be deleted, nothing happens. It is like when you would say : delete this sheets, and if it fails I don't care. Excel is supposed to find the sheet, you will not do any searching.
Note: When the workbook would contain only those two sheets, then only the first sheet will be deleted.
Dim book
Dim sht as Worksheet
set book= Workbooks("SomeBook.xlsx")
On Error Resume Next
Application.DisplayAlerts=False
Set sht = book.Worksheets("ID Sheet")
sht.Delete
Set sht = book.Worksheets("Summary")
sht.Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts=True
On Error GoTo 0
Worksheets("Sheet1").Delete
Worksheets("Sheet2").Delete
try this within your if statements:
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Worksheets(“Sheetname”).Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
