Default Error

I'm trying to copy a tab in a workbook but keep getting error messages, it's
the same error messages just with a different name in them. If I keep
clicking yes then it will copy the sheet, but I have to click yes many times
because it continues to pop up with different names. I don't know what's
going on or why it's saying this but I'd like to fix it so that it doesn't
happen anymore.

Here's 2 examples of error messages that pop up...

"A formula or sheet you want to move or copy contains the name 'Last_Row',
which already exists on the destination worksheet. Do you want to use this
version of the name? To use teh name as defined in teh destination sheet,
click Yes. To rename the range referred to in the formula or worksheet,
click No, and enter a new name in the Name Conflict dialog box."

"A formula or sheet you want to move or copy contains the name 'LN', which
already exists on the destination worksheet. Do you want to use this version
of the name? To use teh name as defined in teh destination sheet, click Yes.
To rename the range referred to in the formula or worksheet, click No, and
enter a new name in the Name Conflict dialog box."

The other names that it shows are 'Number_of_Payments', 'Payment_Date',
'Print_Area_Reset', 'Spec9.10', 'Total_Payment', 'Values_Entered',
Any ideas?

It is taking issue with some named ranges that you have defined in the
worksheet you are copying. Are you copying to another workbook?

Do you know how to fix it?

Thanks!
