I am trying to use a macro written and shared as the supplemental material of a scientific paper published in 1999.
I believe the macro has been written under Excel 1997 environment.
Unfortunately, I have very poor knowledge of VBA-Excel, and as far as I could understand, there might be a problem regarding the call of method .Select or .Range for the ActiveSheet, due to/along with an incompatibility between Excel 1997 and nowadays Excel 2010 (the one I am using).
It seems that VBA-Excel environment has quite a powerful debugging interface, although my poor knowledge of this language doesn't provide sufficient understanding to debug by myself.
My question is: can you try to run the macro, face the bug and corresponding error message, and fix (or help me fixing) the code?
Thank you very much.
Here is the macro:

Here's an updated version of the code. I've done the following:
Declared and sorted all variables
Given the code a good structure (tab-wise)
Made the code run in background (speeded up code from 10s to >1s)
The code begins with removing old data (generated charts and sheets)

Couple of simple issues:
Cells(1, 3).Formula = " =B1*0.0015468"
needs to be:
Cells(1, 3).Formula = "=B1*0.0015468"
without the space before the '=' sign.
Also,
xlTopToBotom is misspelled - it needs to be xlTopToBottom. Similarly, x1FillDefault needs to be xlFillDefault (XL at the start, not X1)
