Below is my code for deleting all data in all of the sheets in ThisWorkbook, but I also want to select cell A1 in all sheets in ThisWorkbook. The code does fin until it comes to select cell A1 on the second sheet.

Code:
Sub CLEAR_FS_MTD_REPORT()
    Sheets(1).Name = "Sheet1"
    Sheets(2).Name = "Sheet2"
    Dim ws As Worksheet
        For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
            ws.Cells.Delete Shift:=xlUp
        Next ws
    Dim wss As Worksheet
        For Each wss In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
            wss.[A1].Select
        Next wss
    Sheets(1).Select
End Sub

I've edited my code to the following and it still doesn't select A1 on any other sheet other than the first one.

Code:
Sub CLEAR_FS_MTD_REPORT()
    Sheets(1).Name = "Sheet1"
    Sheets(2).Name = "Sheet2"
    Dim ws As Worksheet
        For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
            ws.Cells.Delete Shift:=xlUp
            [A1].Activate
        Next ws
    Sheets(1).Select
End Sub

Got it figured out.

Code:
Sub CLEAR_FS_MTD_REPORT()
    Sheets(1).Name = "Sheet1"
    Sheets(2).Name = "Sheet2"
    Dim ws As Worksheet
        For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
            ws.Select
            Cells.Delete Shift:=xlUp
            Range("A1").Select
        Next ws
    Sheets(1).Select
End Sub

Just remove this part of the original code,
Code:
Next ws
    Dim wss As Worksheet
        For Each wss In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
and change this,
Code:
   wss.[A1].Select
Next wss

to this.
Code:
   Application.Goto ws.Range("A1"), True

Next ws

sub SelectA1 ()
For i = 1 to Sheets.count
Sheets(i).Range("a1").select
Next i
end sub
