Deleting Worksheet Error
 

I am running through a loop and create/add a worksheet (sheet #1).
After placing all of the data on sheet #1 a second sheet (sheet #2) is
created/added and formulas are set on sheet #2 to read from sheet #1. The
calcs on sheet #2 are then copied and pasted as values, then I try to delete
sheet #1. When the activesheet.delete command is executed I get a "Cant read
memory error" and Excel is shut down.

How can I delete my newly created sheet without creating a catastrophic error?

For Each wn In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
If Right(wn.Name, 5) = "-DATA" Then
wn.Delete
End If
Next 'wn

Is there an inherent bug that you can not delete a worksheet created in code
until a certain condition is met?

Hi James,

The section of code you show is unexceptionable and I see no reason why it
might cause you problem.

Any code problem that there might be is likely to be upstream of this
section.

Is your problem reproducible, i.e. if you run the same code on another
workbook does the problem recur?

Have you tried copy sheet # 2, and any other sheets, to another workbook and
then trashing the original workbook?
