Worksheets and Events

[sarndt]

I have a workbook that has multiple worksheets - all sharing the same code in
the workbook, worksheets, module, and class module.

When I process events on the first worksheet everthing works correctly.
When I move to the other worksheets, everything works fine. When I move back
to the first worksheet again, the events repeat themselves multiple times
depending on the number of other worksheets I activated. For example, I go
to the second worksheet and back to the first worksheet, the events run 2
times instead of 1 time. I go to the third worksheet and back to the first
worksheet, the events run 3 times instead of 1 time.

Anyone have thoughts on why would occur and how I could stop it. I control
EnableEvents religiously throughout the code to stop the duplication of
events. And it works for everything except when I'm switching from one of
the other sheets back to the first sheet.

Thanks

Do you want to share the event code? That is probably where the answer
lies.

If you mean between the worksheets, no I don't. Each worksheet should stand
independent of the rest.

Without viewing the code, any suggetion to correct the problem would be a
wild guess. The problem has to be in your code since Excel does not
generate events on its own. If you do not want to post the relevant code,
then you will probably not find much help on this site.

As a further comment, it appears from your description that the relevant
code would be in either the worksheet code module or the ThisWorkbook code
module and is either related to the Worksheet_Change or the
WorksheetSelection_Change events.

Thanks - Your suggestion of the problem being in ThisWorkbook or the
worksheet code module pointed me in the right direction and I resolved it! I
hadn't destroyed the collections variable in the ThisWorkbook event that was
being used in the sheet module to create the object events when the worksheet
was activated. When I set it to nothing before looping to re-create my
events, it resolved the problem.
