I have this code that I cut and paste into a workbook, run and then save and close in a macro free workbook. I am trying to set this up as a macro in my personal file to share but keep getting the error above after the activate line. Any ideas as to why I cannot simply just put this as a macro?

Code:
[FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]Sub FreezePains()
[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]    Dim Sh AsWorksheet
[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]    For Each Sh InThisWorkbook.Worksheets
[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]        With Sh
[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]            .Activate
[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]            .Range("C6").Activate[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]        End With
[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]        ActiveWindow.FreezePanes= True
[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]    Next Sh
[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]    ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Activate
[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000]End Sub[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
 

Excel Facts

Highlight Duplicates
Home, Conditional Formatting, Highlight Cells, Duplicate records, OK to add pink formatting to any duplicates in selected range.
If you put that in your Personal workbook and want it to work on whatever workbook is active, then change ThisWorkbook (2 places in the sub) to ActiveWorkbook.
