Hi All,

I have created some VBA that uses DAO to pull some data from MS Access, the
query within Access is a parameter query and uses the Excel tab (worksheet
name) as the parameter, i use "strTabName = ActiveCell.Worksheet.Name" to do
this.

My spreadsheet has 14 tabs, one for each month and a couple of others, i
have to run my code 12 times each time, saying activate the tab and run the
query, each time specifying the tab name.

I want to be able to automate this along the lines of ..... for each
worksheet in range of worksheets 2 to 13 (i don't want to name them if
possible) do the following - activate, then run my code and then repeat for
the next worksheet along.

My code is below if it helps, i didn't write it, i used the knowledge base
and amended it for my data. If anyone can help, please can you help me by
showing me how to change the code below to do this because i am still
learning VBA. For example the Set Ws = Sheets("June") bit and when looping
through the sheets when do i need to set my variables to nothing using .Close
etc.

I have Windows XP and Office 2000. I have added DAO Library 3.6 but no other
references, please let me know if i need any others.

Thanks
Emma

Try this. I don't know where this code lives, but it appears to live in a
worksheet module behind an ActiveX commandbutton. Remember that you only
have to click the button once and it will process all the sheets between 2
and 13. Post back if you have more questions.

strPath = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\Member Database.mdb"

Set Db = Workspaces(0).OpenDatabase(strPath, ReadOnly:=True)

For Each Ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets

If Ws.Index = 2 And Ws.Index <= 13 Then
'This set of code will activate Sheet1 and clear any existing

'After clearing the data, it will select cell A1.
Ws.Range("A1").CurrentRegion.ClearContents
