Hi Peter,

So why doesn't ActiveSheet.Select put anything in the clipboard?

This command selects the activesheet (which is already selected); it
includes no copy instruction.

Hi Peter,

To add a copy of the active sheet, try:

Sub Tester()
ActiveSheet.Copy After:=Worksheets(1)
End Sub

Shouldn't this code create a new worksheet from the active one?

It does create a new sheet,
but just copies the current clipboard to it.

ActiveSheet.Select
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets.Add After:=Worksheets(1)
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(2).Paste

Thanks,
Peter
