Default How to run same macro on 14 out 15 worksheets

Thanks, Jacob! That worked. I didn't even have to reset the security. I
finally found (I can be so blind sometimes!) the proper "This Workbook" under
the tree, copied the code there, and everything worked!

Thanks again for your really fast and on target help!

Hi Jacob,

Thanks for you fast response. In the left treeview, I have 2
"ThisWorkbook"s, one under VBAProject (PERSONAL.XLS) and one under VBAProject
(PERSONAL2.XLS). Both seem to have the same stuff in them.

I double clicked the first "This Workbook" and copied the code you provided,
did a save, then cycled through my worksheets. Only one of them (Sheet9,
"SEP3 Support) actually has data in C3:C12, but nothing happened when I chose
that sheet.

double click 'This Workbook '. Paste the below code and try selecting each
sheet.

Private Sub Workbook_SheetActivate(ByVal Sh As Object)
If Sh.Name < "Instructions" Then _
Range("C3:C12").ClearContents
End Sub

I have a workbook that contains 15 worksheets. The first one is an
"Instructions" page which contains links to the other 14. When any of the
other 14 are selected, I would like to automatically clear C3 through C12. Is
there an easy way to do this?

Thanks!
