You don't say how many sheets there are in your workbook. One workaround
may be to copy all the sheets you want to keep to another workbook, then
erase the offending workbook. Or is this a global problem, affecting all
your workbooks?

Another approach is to just ignore the empty worksheet. Most of my
workbooks only have entries on Sheet 1, but I never bother to delete the
empty default sheets 2 and 3.

When someone gives you a lemon, make lemonade.
