I have existing code for listing macros in active workbook that creates a new sheet. I want to have it overwrite the existing "List_of_Macros" worksheet. I've created this with codename shtMacroList and the code is in the sheet and is runs on Worksheet_Activate()

I've been unable to find this code where it leaves the original worksheet and overwrites the data with updated list of macros. Any assistance would be appreciated. I do have this working perfectly with a table of contents code.

Sub ListMacros()
Dim VBComp As VBComponent
Dim wsTarget As Worksheet
Dim StartLine As Long
Dim iRow As Integer


Application.ScreenUpdating = False


Set wsTarget = Worksheets.Add
wsTarget.Range("A1") = "Macro"
wsTarget.Range("A1").Font.Bold = True
With wsTarget.Range("A1").Borders(xlEdgeBottom)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With

iRow = 2

For Each VBComp In ThisWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents
With VBComp.CodeModule
StartLine = .CountOfDeclarationLines + 1
Do Until StartLine >= .CountOfLines
wsTarget.Cells(iRow, 1) = _
.ProcOfLine(StartLine, vbext_pk_Proc)
iRow = iRow + 1
StartLine = StartLine + _
.ProcCountLines(.ProcOfLine(StartLine, _
vbext_pk_Proc), vbext_pk_Proc)
Loop
End With
Next VBComp

wsTarget.Range("A1").EntireColumn.AutoFit
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
Replace this :
VBA Code:
Set wsTarget = Worksheets.Add
wsTarget.Range("A1") = "Macro"
wsTarget.Range("A1").Font.Bold = True
With wsTarget.Range("A1").Borders(xlEdgeBottom)
    .LineStyle = xlContinuous
    .ColorIndex = 0
    .TintAndShade = 0
    .Weight = xlThin
End With
With this :
VBA Code:
Set wsTarget = Worksheets("List of Macros")
With wsTarget
    Range(.[A2], .Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(3)).ClearContents
End With

Yes, used the check mark on the right but it did give an error first time. I'll pay extra attention next time around.

No problem.

Note: That was not an error but actually a warning that you were marking your post as the solution to ask if you were sure.
