Hello...My name is Robert, and I am an intermediate school math teacher who is trying to remove zero values from certain worksheets in my Excel gradebook. I know for a fact the Macro below this message executes. However, I need the macro to execute for multiple and specific worksheet tabs. The names of the worksheet tabs being referenced begin with q1, q2, q3 and q4. Therefore, I'm thinking maybe the VBA syntax will be q1*, q2*, q3* and q4*.

Sub Hide0()
ActiveWindow.DisplayZeros = False
End Sub
 
Another option
VBA Code:
Option Explicit
Option Compare Text
Sub HideZeros()
Dim ws As Worksheet, i As Long, q
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

q = Array("q1*", "q2*", "q3*", "q4*")
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
    For i = LBound(q) To UBound(q)
        If ws.Name Like q(i) Then
            ws.UsedRange.NumberFormat = "#"
        End If
    Next i
Next ws

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Excel Facts

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
A post #2 variant still seems like the simplest method.

VBA Code:
Sub HideZeros2()
'
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Dim W As Window
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    '
    For Each W In Application.Windows
        If Left(W.Caption, 9) = "gradebook" Then
            W.Activate
            For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
                If (ws.Name Like "q1*" Or ws.Name Like "q2*" Or ws.Name Like "q3*" Or ws.Name Like "q4*") Then
                    ws.Activate
                    ActiveWindow.DisplayZeros = False
                End If
            Next ws
        End If
    Next W
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Complete success has finally been achieved. Thank you very much!!!

As more or less suggested in Post #6, would you not be able to change your formulae with a macro?
We have not seen, at least I have not, your formulae but AFAIK, that can't be that difficult.
