Solved: need to select and run macro on all worksheets in workbook consecutively

[coserria]

OK, here is it, I'm cleaning a series of data from a enterprise database. It spits out a report that is printable but contains footers and excess data that I don't need, I recorded a basic Macro and set some fields for deletion. I’m new to this and have not had any one look at this. It runs in a decent amount of time and is long. The problem is that the server that this report comes from is over loaded and I’m limited and have had to take the report in chunks and not a single report. Now I get it in 1 to 20 seperate worksheets and would liek to run this macro on all sheets with out having to restart it for each. I know it can be doen I just can't find it and I know it is very basic. I could not even record close to what I need.

How do I select all worksheets

For each ws in activeworkbook.worksheets
ws.activate

a friend gave me that but it gives errors.


PS I do not have my basics book with me it is in a different country now.

How do I get it to select each active worksheet in a workbook, I’m sure this can be done with out a loop.

That code looks correct.What do you get?

[coserria]

it comes back as a compile error: for without next


this is taking place at END SUB

i also had an error and had to chage the code below

For each ws in activeworkbook.worksheets
ws.activate

TO:

'For each ws in

activeworkbook.worksheets
ws.activate

The basic code works great I spent a bit of time running though it a few months back. I just got back from vacation and the database people screwed me. Oh well I can adjust. just cant see the forest in the trees.

You need a

[vba]

Next ws
[/vba]

at the end of the loop, after you have procesed the worksheet

[mdmackillop]

Try the following
[vba]
Option Explicit
Sub Test()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim arr, a
Dim Rw As Long, Col As Long, rng As Range
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
arr = Array("Unit Cost", "Line Cost", "Date") 'add other terms to be deleted

On Error GoTo Exits:
For Each ws In Worksheets
With ws
.Activate
.Cells.MergeCells = False
.Cells.WrapText = False
.Range("A:B,D:E,S:S").Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
'Find and delete terms
For Each a In arr
.Cells.Replace What:=a, Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
Next a
'rows and colums here down
Set rng = Range(ws.Columns(1), Columns(ws.Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Column()))
For Col = rng.Columns.Count To 1 Step -1
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(rng.Columns(Col).EntireColumn) = 0 Then
rng.Columns(Col).EntireColumn.Delete
End If
Next Col
Set rng = Range(ws.Rows(1), Rows(ws.Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row()))
For Rw = rng.Rows.Count To 1 Step -1
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(rng.Rows(Rw).EntireRow) = 0 Then
rng.Rows(Rw).EntireRow.Delete
End If
Next Rw
'insert cell for alignment
.Range("B1,D1").Insert Shift:=xlDown
Set rng = Range(ws.Rows(1), Rows(ws.Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row()))

Thanks for the help,

I leaned a bit form that.

For the ones that are intersted in before it is cleaned report that is received is variable from 200 rows to well over a 1000.

Cheers thank for the assistance.
