Perfect ... thanks!

hi
use variables.
Dim nam As String
Worksheets.Add.Name = Format(Date, "mmm dd yy")
nam = ActiveSheet.Name
Sheets("somesheet").Select
Sheets(nam).Select

variables are not stored permanently. when the sub finishes, all variable
are cleared from memory.

Hi. I have the following code (from a macro):

Worksheets.Add.Name = Format(Date, "mmm dd yy")
Sheets("Next List").Select
Range("A1:A25").Select
Range("A25").Activate
Selection.Copy
Sheets(Name).Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone,
SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
Sheets(Name).Select

I'm a beginner in VB and Macros ... how can I "store" the name of the new
worksheet I've created so I can select the right worksheet for the
PasteSpecial command?

Any and all help will be appreciated!
