Selecting a cell range in hidden worksheet

Posted by Jamie on March 31, 2000 8:29 AM

Hello,
I need to clear a cell range in a hidden worksheet and I'm not sure how to do it. The following formula works while the sheet is unhidden but, after I hide the sheet, I get an error.
Sheets("sheet2").Select
Range("A1:A7").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Can anyone help??
Thanks,
Jamie

You can't select a cell range in a hidden sheet.

However, for your situation you don't want to select it, you just want to clear the contents.

Sheets("sheet2").Range("A1:A7").ClearContents

Try to avoid selecting stuff so your macros will run faster and more efficiently.
