I need a auto invoice numbering on a new worksheet that can add a
consequence invoice number from the previous worksheet number.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi
do you really mean 'worksheet' and not 'workbook'. For the latter one
you may have a look at the following repost. It assumes you have a
invoice template (*.xlt file)

----------------
one way (using the Windows registry for storing the last number). Put
the following code in the workbook module (not in a standard module) of
your template:
- It changes cell A1 of the first sheet
- you may change the key identifiert according to your needs (e.g.
DEFAULTSTART, MYLOCATION, etc.)

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Const DEFAULTSTART As Integer = 1
Const MYAPPLICATION As String = "Excel"
Const MYSECTION As String = "myInvoice"
Const MYKEY As String = "myInvoiceKey"
Const MYLOCATION As String = "A1"
Dim regValue As Long

With ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Range(MYLOCATION)
If .Text < "" Then Exit Sub
regValue = GetSetting(MYAPPLICATION, MYSECTION, _
MYKEY, DEFAULTSTART)
.Value = CStr(regValue)
SaveSetting MYAPPLICATION, MYSECTION, MYKEY, regValue + 1
End With
End Sub

Using the registry means that the workbook can be used only on the PC whose registry holds the invoice number counter.

Not very elegant, but easy to set up:

* what you need!
1 excel WB called "Invoice.xls" in which there are 2 sheets, "Invoice"
and "Data"

Concept:
You store a number in the data page which is updated when somthing
happens:

code bit one:
sheets("data").cells(1,1).value = sheets("data").cells(1,1).value +1

code bit 2
sheets("Invoice").Range("a2").value = sheets("data").cells(1,1).value

so this puts the number in a2 on the invoice sheet, which you format
as you like;

now where do you put these code?

well you can put code 2 in the open workbook event, and the code one
bit in the
before close, and you get a book that opens with a new invoice number
and updates it on each open/close,
Better, to put the 2 codes buttons on the Invocie sheet, and then you
can make as many invoice as you like, with out opening closing

so you get this

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Sheets("data").Cells(1, 1).Value = Sheets("data").Cells(1, 1).Value +
1
Sheets("Invoice").Range("a2").Value = Sheets("data").Cells(1, 1).Value
End Sub
