Copy sheet problem
 

Hello,
I've got the run-time error "Copy method of worksheet class failed"
and is trying to use the MSDN workaround for this problem(se
http://support.microsoft.com/default...4&Product=xlw).

But in the MSDN workaround they only copy cells, I want to cop
everything in the sheet, format also.

Sheets.Add Befo=Sheets(1)
Sheets("Mysheet").Cells.Copy
Sheets(ActiveSheet.Name).Paste

How to copy everything in the sheet?

Thank you.

Siri

the code you show does copy everything in on the sheet. It will copy
formats and so forth. an alternative would be


Sheets("Mysheet").copy Befo=Sheets(1)
Sheets("Mysheet").Cells.Copy Destination:=Activesheet.Cells

Cells.Copy copies everything in the sheet. Cells refers to all of the cells
on a worksheet.

Have you tried this technique?

Hi SiriS,

This should solve it.

Sub CopyToTopSheet()
Dim Rng As Range

Sheets.Add Befo=Sheets(1)
Set Rng = Sheets("MySheet").Cells
Rng.Copy (Range("A1")) 'of the sheet just added.

End Sub

Regards

Paul

Actually that just raises an error because of your improper use of
parentheses around the Range("A1").

Copy sheet problem
 

Sorry, I did not explain correctly. My problem is I have buttons, graph
and drawingobjects in my sheet that I would like to copy, not just th
cells; I do want to copy everything in the sheet.

Do I have to do like this:

Sheets.Add Befo=Sheets(1) 'Copy Cells
Sheets("Mysheet").Cells.Copy
Sheets(ActiveSheet.Name).Paste
Sheets("Mysheet").DrawingObjects.Copy 'Copy drawingobjects
Sheets(ActiveSheet.Name).Paste
....
'Copy graphs etc.

and so on, for every type of object in the sheet?

Siri

Hi Tom Ogilvo,

do you mean by writing

Sheets("Mysheet").copy Befo=Sheets(1)
Sheets("Mysheet").Cells.Copy Destination:=Activesheet.Cells

?

But I can not use

Sheets("Mysheet").copy Befo=Sheets(1),

since that will raise the run-time error "Copy method of workshee
class failed" I mentioned in my first message (the run-time erro
occurs when I have copied the sheet many times in a loop, se
Microsofts Knowledge Base-artikel - 177634 ).

Regards,
Siri

No, I'm using Excel 2002.

error 1004 "Copy method of worksheet class failed".

(I know the knowledge article says the problem only occur fo
Excel97).

Copy sheet problem
 

Hi all,

I think I have a similar problem as SiriS.

Part of my coding is as follows:

ChDir "C:\Done"
FDir = "C:\Done\"
Workbooks.Open FileName:=FDir + GetFileName(x)
Windows(GetFileName(x)).Activate

Sheets("NewConds").Select
Cells.Select
Selection.Copy

Windows("New Book.xls").Activate
Sheets("NewConds").Select
Cells.Select
ActiveSheet.Paste

When the Macro ran to the line ActiveSheet.Paste, an error message will
be prompted as follows:

Run-time error '-2147417848 (80010108)':
Method 'Paste' of object '_worksheet' failed

In fact, I don't know why it happened. I use these codings before and
they are Ok. Same as SiriS, I am using Excel 2002.

Can someone here help us to solve the problem? Thanks!
