Yes I checked the extensibility option.

Any other possible reasons why I would get this?

on the shapes, try

sub delshapes()
for each sh in activeworkbook.shapes
sh.delete
next sh
end sub

Hi,

Thanks for your help.

Neat solution I like it!! 1000x better than the long winded copy paste
macro I had in mind.

Several questions if possible please -

a) The macro is telling me Run time error 1004, Programmatic access to
VB
project is not trusted. The error is appearing in the delete VB
section at the
following line:

Set VBComps = ActiveWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents

b) There are two sheets one called Details and the other Machines that
I
would like
to delete completely, tab included. Is this possible to add in?

c) There are several form buttons for the users use to run the
macros -
can
these
also be deleted with code?

d) The above steps will leave 9 sheet tabs. 8 of which from columns
A10
to
B500
have cells that are coloured either red, green or nothing (white).
Is
it possible
to have a paste special in the code to copy the colours in each of
these cells to
the new file? (either that or keep the contents of the cells (its
0,1
or "") and the
conditional format).

I guess u can see my VB skills/knowledge is pretty skinny. Sorry as I
guess
some of these things are simple when u know how.

Thanks again
LiAD

Hi,

I have a file with about 10 worksheets in it, each with a lot of
data,
formulas, macros etc - as a result the file is a chunky 16MB.

In order not to take up huge amounts of space when the file is
updated
every
week I could like to save all the data formatted in exactly the
same
way
etc
but without the formulas and macros into another separate file.

I can create a macro to do a copy/paste special values into another
pre
assigned file with the same layout and no macros - thats no
problem.
However
it is, or will be a long long macro which means if I need to change
it
will
be a nightmare.

Is there any quicker way of doing this?

Thanks
LiAD
