Hello all I'm new here, and seem to stuck on some code, I have a sheet called home with my macro buttons, I also have a hidden sheets called datadump3, that I use to
import data from another work book, that all works fine but I am having an issue with the last part were I am deleting rows that contain Do Not Cut, on datadump3, when I'm on the home sheet and click the macro button I get an error (select method of range class failed), but if I select on the datadump3 sheet and make it the active sheet and run the code from vb it runs fine, I think I need to specify which sheet it should be working on? not sure any help would be great hope I posted this right thank you

Code:
   Sub GtSt()
'
' GtSt Macro
'
'===================================================
'define the variables
On Error GoTo Errmsg
Errmsg:
    If Err.Number = 9 Then
        MsgBox "The workbook named cutlist is not open or has been renamed. Click ok then in the eCabinets cut list click on export cut list to excel and select open.", vbCritical
