Deselect first two sheets

I want to deselect sheets 1 (Master) and 2 (Prep) where I have another 40 sheets also selected in a macro. So as to leave only the 40 sheets selected.

If you have 40 sheets + these 2 then this
may help....

Sub SelectAllSheets()
Dim sh As Worksheet
Dim i As Single

'make sure we Start off with another sheet other then these 2
Do Until ActiveSheet.Name <> "Master" And ActiveSheet.Name <> "Prep"
Sheets(i + 1).Select
i = i + 1
Loop
'Now select all bar 2
For Each sh In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
If sh.Name <> "Master" And sh.Name <> "Prep" Then
sh.Select False
End If
Next

End Sub

Hi

Just to give you a couple more ideas to expand on Ivans answer, try:

Dim sh As Worksheet

On Error Resume Next
For Each sh In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
sh.Visible = Not (sh.Name = "Master" Or sh.Name = "Prep")
sh.Select False
Next

End Sub

Thanks for that guys. Unfortunately the first two are always selected at the start.

Dave. I see you hide the two sheets, this looks like the better route
