Loop through sheets and create a small PivotTable on each

[ryguy7272]

Sub CreatePivots()
Dim sh As Worksheet
For Each sh In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
If InStr(1, sh.Name, "Sheet1") Then
sh.Select False
Else
sh.Select
Columns("A:J").Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight
Range("K1").Select
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
ActiveSheet.Range("K1").CurrentRegion).CreatePivotTable _
TableDestination:=ActiveSheet.Range("A1"), TableName:="PivotTable1", _
DefaultVersion:=xlPivotTableVersion10
With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("DESCRIPTION")
..Orientation = xlRowField
..Position = 1
End With
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").AddDataField ActiveSheet.PivotTables( _
"PivotTable1").PivotFields("TRAN-AMOUNT"), "Sum of TRAN-AMOUNT", xlSum
End If
Next sh
End Sub


The code fails on this line:
sh.Select

Of course I tried this:
sh.Select True

Still fails. If I F8-through I can see that True = True, so I can't figure
out why the code doesn't run. Does anyone see something that I'm not seeing?

TIA,

Finally got it:

Sub CreatePivots()
For Each sh In Worksheets
If (sh.Name) <> "Sheet1" Then
sh.Select
Columns("A:J").Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight

'etc., etc., etc.

End If
Next sh
End Sub

Hope this helps others...
