I tried the code in the sheet vb editor and it deleted the sheets but the names and formulas to the right remain intact.



that is when the selected cells are not connected.

Place the code in a standard module.

Try:



Sub DeleteSheets()

Dim rngC As Range



Application.DisplayAlerts = False

For Each rngC In Selection

Sheets(rngC.Text).Delete

rngC.Resize(, 5).ClearContents

Next

Range("C8:G32").Sort key1:=[C9], order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes

Application.DisplayAlerts = True

End Sub

I'm having success with this code, which seems to be identical to the previous. Makes me think I may be doing stuff at my end and getting errors and maybe it is not the code at all. Forgetting to select the sheet names to be selected before running the code is one example.

I'm thinking I see a problem when I select from a list of 10 names,
say the 4th, 7th, 9th and run delete code it kinda messes up, but I need to gather real specifics before I come to you with that. Using single digit numbers as sheet names may also be a problem. But applying strict do's and don't rules for use of codes to the end user seems reasonable to me.

Thanks, Claus

I'll bat it around
