    Worksheet count and reference issue

    Hi
    Within the same sub procedure I've gone through the steps below:

    1 - I've started with two sheets, different data in each and the first step is to filter the first sheet for certain values, inserting a new worksheet and naming it and pasting the filtered values into the new sheet. Then deleting the first worksheet. (no probs, works great on its own)

    2 - I have then gone through this process again with the second worksheet, buy filtering, inserting and renaming a new worksheet and pasting the filtered values into the new worksheet, then deleting the filtered worksheet (this is the second worksheet). (this also works fine on its own).

    3 -I originally had two separate sub procedures to separate the two tasks above though when I joined them together and ran the macro the first part works fine ( Number 1 above ) though when it comes to filtering the second worksheet it goes back and filteres the worksheet I inserted the filtered values in from step 1 above.

    I have calculation set to manual and think this might be it. Is this why the procedure goes back to the first worksheet used in 1 and filters values in that instead of the second sheet.

    My other theory is that when I insert a new worksheet, it is identified as the second new worksheet I inserted (even though I have renamed them both before performing the actions above). Excel may not recognise them as different sheets?

    Does anyone know what I may have done wrong there. The macro is too long ot paste in though I think this may be a conceptual issue involvind how vba identifies the sheets. If anyone could shead some light on this, it would be much apprecieated. Thanks.

    You probably referencing the Worksheet by ActiveWorksheet.

    Change it to specific sheet names like

    I named the worksheets

    Hi
    Thanks for coming back though I have named the worksheet. The fact that steps 1 & 2 are in the same sub procedure is causing the issue. Would haveing calculation set to manual instead of auto affect this?

    I don't think so.
    Do you want to post your code?
