Mr. Anderson

may I suggest that you make 2 SUB routines .

1. to activate zoom to all worksheets

2. to de-activate zoom to all worksheets

per codes below:

HTH

Sub zoomwindow()
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
        ws.Activate
        ActiveWindow.Zoom = 150   'change number per your need
    Next ws
End Sub

Sub zoomoutwindow()
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
        ws.Activate
        ActiveWindow.Zoom = 100   'can be changed to smaller window size
    Next ws
End Sub

Mr. Anderson

If you would want zoom to activate as you open the workbook - then you have to put the codes of zoomwindow in ThisWorkbook > Private Sub workbook_open()

But I will suggest that you keep the zoomoutwindow (in a different module)- just in case you want all worksheet to revert to original size.
