Open workbook ME2005.

Open a blank workbook and name it ME2006.

With ME2005 active right-click on a sheet tab and "select all sheets"

Right-click again and "Move or copy"

Checkmark "create a copy" and select ME2006 as the copy to book. OK.

The sheets will be copied to ME2006.

Close ME2005(so confusion doesn't arise).

Start here after save as ME2006

With ME2006, right-click and Select all sheets.

F5SpecialConstants. Choose the constants to select. You will probably
want
to keep titles etc.

Hit OK and EditClear Contents to clear out data and leave formulas.

DO NOT FORGET to right-click and "ungroup sheets" or you can have
disastrous
results. When grouped, what you do to one sheet will be done to the
others.

If you have any titles or such that read 2005, you can EditReplace with
2006.

Have 13 sheets in workbook, ME2005, 1x each month and 1x summary sheet.
Each
month has 68 rows for each customer and columns for deposits, date and
amount and adding that to a summary page with checks and balances
formulas.

Starting new year in '06 and would like to transfer format and formulas
but
NOT values from ME2005 to a new workbook named ME2006.
OR use a copy of the '05 workbook and delete all values, in mass, and
rename
workbook to ME2006 w/o losing formulas.

I tried to copy('05) and special paste format and then formulas into new
'06
workbook BUT values pasted also when I special pasted formulas.

Suggestions please,
