Hi,
I've been successfully able to delete all excel tabs where there are 0 rows of data in it using the code below:
Sub DelMT()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
If Application.CountA(ws.Cells) = 0 Then ws.Delete
Next ws
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

However, I like to delete all tabs where there is less than 1 row. i.e. If you have only 1 or more cells in the first row of a given sheet that sheet will be deleted.
If you have two or more rows, that sheet would not get deleted.
What changes are required to the above code?
 

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.

Somewhat confusing.

Anyway, assuming that column A in each sheet can be used to determine how many rows have been used, try the code below in a copy of your workbook.
Note that a workbook cannot exist with zero sheets so if all worksheets have less than 2 rows, one sheet will still remain after the code.

Rich (BB code):
Sub Delete_Sheets()
  Dim ws As Worksheet
  
  Application.DisplayAlerts = False
  For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    If ws.Cells(ws.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row = 1 And ActiveWorkbook.Sheets.Count > 1 Then ws.Delete
  Next ws
  Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

If column A is not a reliable guide to the number of rows used then post back for an alternative code
