Default Copying Formats vs Formatting Programatically

Hi Adam,

A couple of notes:
1. try applying your formatting in blocks so you are not applying it to each
cell.
2. have you turned of screenupdating? Application.ScreenUpdating = False
- you need to set it back to True at the end of your procedure(s)

Can anyone speak to the performance issues between copying and pasting a
range of formats vs programmatically setting formats? It seems that it is
much faster to copy and paste, than looping through a range, and I am
wondering if anyone has any input on this.

We currently keep a template sheet, but I would like to move away from this.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Adam
