The original macro "How to run the same macro on multiple worksheets at same time in Excel" is fantastic for my purposes, thanks so much. I was wondering if there's a way to get it to return to the first worksheet where I have a control to run the macro. Currently it goes through 25 worksheets doing my code (autofit & Sort by date) and stops once it's done the last worksheet of the 25. Returning to the first sheet would be the icing on the cake! Thanks in advance for thinking about this.

Hello, karen,
To run the code on selected sheet, please apply the below code:
Step1: Copy anf paste the below code into the Module Window
'Replace this code with your own, but keep the script inside the parentheses
Sub LCase(ws As Worksheet)
Dim Rng As Range
Dim WorkRng As Range
On Error Resume Next
xTitleId = "KutoolsforExcel"
Set WorkRng = Application.Selection
Set WorkRng = Application.InputBox("Range", xTitleId, WorkRng.Address, Type:=8)
For Each Rng In WorkRng
    Rng.Value = VBA.LCase(Rng.Value)
Next
End Sub

Sub RunOnSelectedSheets()
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    For Each ws In ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets
        LCase ws    'change the LCase code name to your own code name
    Next ws
End Sub



Step2: Replace the first section of code above with your own code, but keep the script inside the parentheses. And change the LCase code name to your own code name.

Step3: Then, select the worksheet you want to run this code.
After running the code, your code will be executed on each of the selected sheets.

Please have a try, hope it can help you!

Terimakasih sebelumnya atas ilmu ilmu yg sudah di share. Saya sudah memakai beberapa VBA anda.

Tapi bolehkan saya meminta tolong untul mencarikan VBA yg tepat untuk mengaktifkan VBA yg sudah ada di sheet tertentu tanpa harus masuk ke sheet tersebut.

Contohnya.
Saya sudah menggunakan vBA anda yg berfungsi untuk mengurutkan data secara otomatis.

Tetapi ketika data yg saya terapkan itu berubah karena hasil pencarian data dari sheet yg berbeda. vBA tersebut tidak aktif. Harus terlebih dahulu masuk ke Sheet Tersebut untuk merubah data dengan manual barulah VBa pengurutan dat tersebut aktif.

Bisakah dicarikan VBA nya?

It works, but the current sheet is always running twice. The rest sheets are perfect and run only once!

Thank you so much! But it's not working. It only runs the current sheet for several times.

The code "Run the same macro on multiple worksheets at same time" works perfectly, Thanks !

However I have this error at "xSh.Select" and I don't know why...there is no issue visible in the sheets... AND I don't have any hidden sheets.

The error is '1004': Method'Select' of object '_Worksheet' failed


Thanks in advance for your help
