Hi,

When you have deleted a sheet and catch it in the
deactivate event, is
there a property in the object model that indicates that
you have
selected delete sheet? The reason why I need to know is
because the
deactivate event is fired even when you switch between
sheets and I
only want to perform certain actions when delete has
been selected?

Thanks,

Rick

Hi Rick:

There is no trappable Worksheet_Delete event. A workaround might be to use
the Deactivate event and then check if the worksheet still exists.

Thanks Vasant,

Do you know if there is a way to cancel a sheet being deleted once a
user has selected delete on the excel delete message box? Basically i am
trying to stop users from deleteing a sheet if it has certain data in
it. I don't want to protect the worksheet/workbook.. I will be doing my
checking in the deactivate event and if certain criteria are meet then i
need to cancel the delete..

Any ideas?

Rick

Sorry, Rick; AFAIK there is no way to prevent deletion of a sheet (without
protecting the workbook).
