Help fixing and cleaning up code

I know just enough about VBA to dig myself into a hole and I need some help getting out. I'm using the code below to format several worksheets within my workbook. I'm running into a few issues that I can't figure out how to solve.

1) The first part of the code runs on all of the targeted worksheets, as expected, but once it gets to the red text, it only runs on the active worksheet. I need the entire code to run on all of the targeted worksheets based on the control table on the control tab.

2) When the code gets to the part with the red text, it's adding all of the headed rows to the active worksheet so instead of having a head on each one, it's putting them all on one. What I'm trying to do is insert custom headers into the top row on each of the selected worksheets (based on the control table) without overwriting the data that's currently there.

I've attached a test document as well as a document that shows what I'd like the end state to look like.


Any help is appreciated!

Code:

Sub Delete()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim lastrow As Long
Dim i As Long
    With Application
        .Calculation = xlCalculationManual
        .EnableEvents = False
        .ScreenUpdating = False
    End With
        For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
            If TryMatch(Lookup:=ws.Name, _
                Lookin:=wsControl.ListObjects("tblTarget").DataBodyRange) Then
                ws.Range("A:A,B:B,C:C,D:D,E:E,M:M,N:N,Q:Q,R:R").Delete
            End If
            If TryMatch(Lookup:=ws.Name, _
                Lookin:=wsControl.ListObjects("tblTarget").DataBodyRange) Then
                lastrow = ws.Cells(ws.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
                    For i = lastrow To 1 Step -1
                        If TryMatch(Lookup:=ws.Cells(i, "A").Interior.Color, _
                        Lookin:=wsControl.ListObjects("tblColours").ListColumns(2).DataBodyRange) Then
                        ws.Rows(i).Delete
                        End If
                    Next i
            End If
            If TryMatch(Lookup:=ws.Name, _
                Lookin:=wsControl.ListObjects("tblTarget").DataBodyRange) Then
                Rows("1:1").Select
                    Application.CutCopyMode = False
                    Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
            End If
            If TryMatch(Lookup:=ws.Name, _
                Lookin:=wsControl.ListObjects("tblTarget").DataBodyRange) Then
                Range("A1:J1").Value = Array("EE #", "mfg", "Serial #", "Initial Status", "Final Status", "Cost", "Description", "CSN", "CSN Description", "Category")
            End If
        Next ws
    With Application
        .Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
        .EnableEvents = True
        .ScreenUpdating = True
    End With
End Sub

If you don't use an explicit worksheet reference, Excel uses the active sheet

So Rows(1).Delete would work on Sheet1 the way you think IF Sheet1 is the Activesheet

If Sheet99 is the active sheet, then row 1 on Sheet99 would be deleted

So use Worksheets("Sheet2").Rows(1).Delete or ws.Rows(1).Delete

Marked some places, and made some suggestions (can't help myself :whistle: )

Code:

    For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
    'assume any dot-property (e.g. .Name, .Range, etc.) is  to the current ws from the loop
    With ws
   
        Application.StatusBar = "Cleaning up Worksheet " & .Name
   
        'easy way to avoid a lot or If/Thens
        If Not TryMatch(Lookup:=.Name, Lookin:=wsControl.ListObjects("tblTarget").DataBodyRange) Then GoTo NextWS
           
        'consolidated
        .Range("A:E,M:N,Q:R").Delete
       
        lastrow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
       
        'I think the main problem was not having a 'dot' on many properties so the ActiveSheet (whatever it was) was always used
        For i = lastrow To 1 Step -1
            If TryMatch(Lookup:=.Cells(i, "A").Interior.Color, _
            Lookin:=wsControl.ListObjects("tblColours").ListColumns(2).DataBodyRange) Then

    Next ws
   
    With Application
        .StatusBar = False
        .Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
        .EnableEvents = True

End Sub

    Dim res As Long
   
    On Error Resume Next
    res = Application.Match(Lookup, Lookin, 0)
    TryMatch = res <> 0
    On Error GoTo 0
End Function




Private Sub FormatWS(s As String)
    With Worksheets(s)
        .Activate
        .Cells(1, 1).CurrentRegion.EntireColumn.ColumnWidth = 200
        .Cells(1, 1).CurrentRegion.EntireRow.AutoFit

Thanks Paul! I'll give that a try and see if it works. I appreciate you taking the time to "red pen" my code! Truly.
