Shapes doesn't have a delete method. What you can do is

ActiveSheet.Shapes.SelectAll
Selection.Delete

Chaps,

I have a macro which calls a function to delete all
shapes on a worksheet.
If that sheet holds many shapes (100+), then the code
crashes while deleting the shapes: (memory at ... could
not be read)

I've tried many implementations to delete these shapes
(deleteAll, for each, ...) but I always end up in the
same situation

Can somebody give me the best way to avoid this problem?

thanks
