merge cells eror when copying worksheet
 

I have two identical spreadsheets in the same book, one uses drop down
validation boxes, I am trying to copy the contents only to email the sheet
without the links.
When I try to 'paste special', 'values', I get the error message, 'merged
cells must be the same size. But the format of both sheets, merged cells,
sizes and formats are identical.
Why am I getting this error message ?

As a workaround, try pasting special as values on a "brand new" sheet (one
w/o any merge cells).

After pasting special as values, do another paste special as formats to
produce the equivalent that you're after

merge cells eror when copying worksheet
 

I have tried, pasting special, values, then formats, and formats then values.
In the new sheet, all the cells are the rows and columns are the same size,
so then I need to resize everything.
What I ideally need to do is copy the contents without the dropdown boxes.
I have some knowledge of VB in Excel & Access.
Is there a command I could use in VB to copy the contents?

Thanks for you help to date.

I'm out, sorry. Hang around awhile for responders versed in vba to jump-in
here.
