I have just started with Macros. I have recorded a few and want them to
run when you select a specific worksheet tab. The macros do
calculations and paste the data from another worksheet. When a user
selects the tab for the "Bottom5" worksheet, I want the macros to run.
How do I make this happen? Thanks for any help.

If you right click on the required tab and select View Code, then put your
code into a specific sub routine such as:-

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
MsgBox "Hi"
End Sub

then each time you select that tab the code will execute.

Thanks a lot for the advice. It was perfect.

Does anyone know any sites that provide tips on basic syntax for
writing? I want to sort, copy, paste, etc. Thanks again for any help.

Call them from the worksheet activate event:

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()

End Sub
