I would like to use the name of activesheet to enter in data on other sheet on corresponding name, but without selecting or activating that sheet.

I have a working formula below, but is there anyway to avoid selecting the other sheet?

Code:
Sub mark()
    Dim findx As String
    findx  = ActiveSheet.Name
    
    
        Sheets("Overblik").Select
        Set C = Cells.Find(What:=findx, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
                LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
                MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False)
        C.Offset(0, 1).Interior.color = 6


End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
Try this:
Code:
Sub mark()
    Dim findx As String
    findx = ActiveSheet.name
    
        Set c = sheets("Overblik").Cells.Find(What:=findx, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
                LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
                MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False)
        c.Offset(0, 1).Interior.Color = 6

End Sub
