I wondered if anyone could help me modify this line of code,
so instead of it copying the sheet with index 1 it would be dynamic, so that
the user could input a string and this is the sheet that would be copied.

mybook.Worksheets(1).Copy after:= _
bsebk.Sheets(bsebk.Sheets.Count)

The routine is based around Ron de Bruin's sheet copy macro, I am just
trying to get to grips with generalising it.

Thanks in advance

try
mysheet=inputbox("Enter sheet name"
mybook.Worksheets(mysheet).Copy after:= _
bsebk.Sheets(bsebk.Sheets.Count)

Else
MsgBox "The sheet name you inserted does not exist"
vbInformation + vbOKOnly, "I'm so Sorry, but:"
End If

I cant seem to get in in without an error occuring in the final lines,
can you help, maybe i'm putting the breaks in the wrong place, if this works I
can add it to the rest (From Ron) which loops around, that would be
brilliant!!!

I have to say I was surprised by how quickly someone got back to me

Thanks again for looking at this

I got it to work, however, my version XL97 doesnt seem to like
the End If statement. I'll play with this over the weekend to see if I
can put all of the code together.

Thanks again

John

If you have an IF then you need an end if IF more than one line

if tt then
ddd
end if

or
if tt then ddd

no end if needed
