Got a Private Sub:

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
On Error Resume Next
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=10, Criteria1:=Sheets("Instructions").Range("AA7").Value
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=33, Criteria1:=Sheets("Instructions").Range("AA5").Value
End Sub

How do I change it to a normal on demand macro. More to it than removing the Private bit, cause that didn't work :), so I am guessing there needs to be more at the beginning and end.

Thanks in Advance
 

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
Create a sub and name it anything you want. Then put the body of the other code in that one, i.e.

VBA Code:
Sub MyMacro()
    On Error Resume Next
    Selection.AutoFilter Field:=10, Criteria1:=Sheets("Instructions").Range("AA7").Value
    Selection.AutoFilter Field:=33, Criteria1:=Sheets("Instructions").Range("AA5").Value
End Sub
