Hi,

I would like to adjust my macro (see the code at the bottom) so it will delete every worksheet higher than sheet(16). Sheet(16) can not be deleted.

Currently I am using this line, which I do not like.
VBA Code:
With ThisWorkbook
.Sheets(17).DELETE: .Sheets(18).DELETE: .Sheets(19).DELETE: .Sheets(20).DELETE: .Sheets(21).DELETE: .Sheets(22).DELETE
End With

Also I am not sure if I should use "On Error Resume Next" or not.

Thank you guys.

VBA Code:
Sub deleteSheetIfExists()
On Error Resume Next
With Application
.DisplayAlerts = False
With ThisWorkbook
.Sheets(17).DELETE: .Sheets(18).DELETE: .Sheets(19).DELETE: .Sheets(20).DELETE: .Sheets(21).DELETE: .Sheets(22).DELETE
End With
.DisplayAlerts = True
End With
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.
Try this to delete the sheets

VBA Code:
Dim i As Long

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For i = Sheets.Count To 17 Step -1
  Sheets(i).Delete
Next i
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
