I was trying to write a macro to select all columns on all sheets in
the workbook and force the columns to fit to the data. However, even
using a tip here to select all the sheets, I could only get it to apply
automatic widths to the current sheet.

Is it possible to write a macro to do this?

Any help apreciated. Excel 2003.

Hi Vmaster
Try ou this

Sub AutoFitColumns()
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
ws.Columns.AutoFit
Next
End Sub

For some reason this did nothing! Is 'ThisWorkbook' proper syntax?

Anyway this did work, not really sure what the difference with! I got
there with your help. Thanks!

HI Vmaster,
Thisworkbook refers to the workbook on which you have written the
function,and active workbook refers to the workbook which is active now

Thanks
