I am trying to write a function which will delete all sheets except the one passed as parameter. Below function is being called but function does not delete any sheets. How can I delete all worksheets except one?
........
Set ExcelObj = createobject("excel.application")
ExcelObj.Visible = true
Set ConfigFile = ExcelObj.Workbooks.Open (FilePath)
Set ConfigSheet = ConfigFile.Worksheets("Scripts")
Set ConfigApplicationSheet = ConfigFile.Worksheets("Applications")
Set ExecutiveSummarySheet = ConfigFile.Worksheets("Summary")
ExcelObj.ActiveWorkBook.SaveAs SummaryFilePath
DeleteSheet "ConfigScripSheet","Summary"
Function DeleteSheet(ConfigSheet,mySheetname)
'Writing Name and Path of each File to Output File
For Each ObjFile In ObjFiles
ObjOutFile.WriteLine(ObjFile.Name & String(50 - Len(ObjFile.Name), " ") & ObjFile.Path)
Next
ObjOutFile.Close
DeleteSheet = 0
ExcelObj.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each objWorksheet In ConfigSheet.Worksheets
If not objWorksheet.Name = mySheetname Then
DeleteSheet = 1
ConfigScripSheet.sheets(objWorksheet.Name).Select
ConfigScripSheet.sheets(objWorksheet.Name).Delete
ExcelObj.DisplayAlerts = False
End If
Next
End Function
Trying to correct your code above was too much of a minefield for me as I couldn't tell what you meant in several places - so I rewrote it based on what you had said in the description was your goal.
The code below will open the file, associate the objects the way you had them, pass the workbook object and a sheet name not to be deleted into the DeleteSheet
function, which will delete any sheet in the workbook that is not named as per the passed in parameter SheetNameNotToDelete
Let me know if any of the code is unclear.
Option Explicit ' Forces declaration of variables
Dim FilePath, SummaryFilePath '<-- Need set to some value!
FilePath = ""
SummaryFilePath = ""
Dim ExcelObj : Set ExcelObj = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Dim ConfigFile : Set ConfigFile = ExcelObj.Workbooks.Open(FilePath)
Dim ConfigSheet : Set ConfigSheet = ConfigFile.Worksheets("Scripts")
Dim ConfigApplicationSheet : Set ConfigApplicationSheet = ConfigFile.Worksheets("Applications")
Dim ExecutiveSummarySheet : Set ExecutiveSummarySheet = ConfigFile.Worksheets("Summary")
ExcelObj.ThisWorkbook.SaveAs SummaryFilePath
DeleteSheet ConfigFile, "Summary"
Function DeleteSheet(ByRef WorkbookObj, ByVal SheetNameNotToDelete)
Dim oWorksheet
For Each oWorksheet In WorkbookObj.Worksheets
If oWorksheet.Name <> SheetNameNotToDelete And WorkbookObj.Worksheets.Count >=2 Then
oWorksheet.Delete ' Excel won't let you delete all worksheets from a workbook
End If ' the check on Count >=2 covers the case where no worksheet exists
Next ' called "Summary" to be left
End Function
