Hello,

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Trying to delete a named range when the workbook opens.
....
Application.Goto Reference:="Clienti_Clear_Range" '(name for range A8:K900
Selection.ClearFormats
Selection.ClearContents
....

I tried this:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'Updated by Extendoffice 20190712
Application.EnableEvents = False
Worksheets("Clienti").Range("A8:K900").Value = ""
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub


It does work from within the open worklbook but not when the worksheet opens ...

Thank you!,

Gelu
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Hi Gelu,

code must be placed in ThisWorkbook, not a standard module.

Ciao,
Holger

It works beautifully,

Thank you Holger! :)

To delete a bunch of named ranges should I do this?:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'Updated by Extendoffice 20190712
Application.EnableEvents = False
Worksheets("Clienti").Range("A8:K900").Value = ""
Worksheets("Sheet2").Range(Name2).Value = ""
Worksheets("Sheet3").Range(Name3).Value = ""

Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Hi gelu,

the Names need to be put in quotes like
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'https://www.mrexcel.com/board/threads/macro-on-open-to-clear-named-range.1218040/
'Updated by Extendoffice 20190712
  Application.EnableEvents = False
  Worksheets("Clienti").Range("A8:K900").Value = ""
  Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("Name2").Value = ""
  Worksheets("Sheet3").Range("Name3").Value = ""
  Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
Ciao,
Holger
