Macro not working with new personal.xls file

[broncosrul]

As background, this macro (which I got from this forum) works just fine in my personal.xls macro list. However, I was trying to pass it along to someone else and at some point they had deleted their personal.xls file. So, I went through the process of

creating a workbook called personal.xls
dropping it in their XLSTART folder
hiding the workbook and saving it

Everything seems to be fine. Their EXCEL now opens with the typical default workbook and I can see the personal.xls in the VBA explorer.

However, this macro doesn't work for them if it is saved into the personal.xls workbook. It is supposed to take the active workbook and look at the items in a list and create a separate tab for each of the unique values. Stepping through it

it finds a unique value list (in this case from column one)
Creates a tab called UniqueList
Creates all the necessary tabs and copies the appropriate info
Deletes the UniqueList tab

Let's say that the workbook we want to modify is called TEST. The problem seems to be that it keeps making the personal.xls file the active workbook at some point. So, when the macro runs, it will find the unique values on TEST workbook, but create the UniqueList tab in the personal.xls workbook (with the unique values from the TEST workbook). And then error out.

Here is the code

Nevermind... I am an idiot. Upon further review, I pasted the macro into the personal.xls "ThisWorkbook" rather than into a Module. Once I moved it, the macro worked fine. Sorry for the stupid question.
