Block grouping sheets
I am using Excel 2007. I don't want to group sheets, I want to stop any user of a workbook from grouping sheets.
why do u want to do this ?
why do u want to do this ?
What difference does that make?
I have macros which do not work if multiple sheets are selected.
here's the fix for you
here's the fix for you then
put this line before it wld normally break:
ActiveSheet.Select
Here's my code - where should I add it?

Didn't work
I placed it in the code like this:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
ActiveSheet.Select
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then
MsgBox "Limit your selection to a single cell" 'Prevents clearing more than 1 cell at a time

Exit Sub
