I guessed that your code was taken from a button on a userform. I also guessed
that txtRemoveSheet was the name of a textbox on that userform.

I could have been wrong in both cases.

If I was correct in my guesses, then I don't see a need to initialize the value
in that textbox.

And by share the value, I was asking what that textbox (or variable named
txtremovesheet) actually held.

Is it a good idea to initialize string variables before using them? How
and where would I initialize txtRemoveSheet to an empty string before
the subroutine is called?

What do you mean by "share that value"?

Thanks for the reply,

I don't know why it didn't work for you. Maybe it has something to do with
what's in that textbox???

You may want to share that value.

When running the following Visual Basic code a run time error occurs
saying that there is a type mismatch. The name txtRemoveSheet is from a
textbox. My assumption was that it should be of type string and that
the Delete method accepted strings. Is this assumption correct? I
don't see why txtRemoveSheet is not accepted, can someone enlighten me?

Private Sub cmdDelete_Click()
Worksheets(txtRemoveSheet).Delete
txtRemoveSheet.Text = ""
End Sub

Thank you,
