Default Code to format cells on several worksheets

Hi

I have written the code below to ensure some key info is always visible in cells whether or not users unprotect the worksheet and delete the contents. The code is password protected.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Range("A1").Font.ColorIndex = 51
Range("A1:B1").Interior.Color = RGB(211, 206, 177)
Range("A1").Value = "KEEP THIS TEXT"
Selection.Locked = True
End Sub

The problem I have is, I can make this work on 1 sheet, but don't have a clue how to use it on other worksheets (eg, Sheet2, Sheet3, Sheet4, etc) in the workbook without repeating the code and changing the sheet reference.

The relevant cell is the same on every sheet, A1.

Please can someone advise how to modify the vb so I can do this?

Thanks - help would be much appreciated

Steve

try this code in the code module of "ThisWorkbook":



Private Sub Workbook_SheetActivate(ByVal Sh As Object)

With Sh

With .Range("A1")

.Font.ColorIndex = 51

.Value = "KEEP THIS TEXT"

End With

With .Range("A1:B1")

.Interior.Color = RGB(211, 206, 177)

.Locked = True

End With

End With

End Sub
