I have a workbook with a sub to copy a specific Worksheet and paste a copy to
the end of the workbook. The workbook contains defined names. The worksheet
to copy DOES NOT. When I copy this worksheet, I keep getting the error
message that the worksheet you are trying to copy contains a Range or Formula
with the name (three different names I keep getting ("shoes","vc","bags"), I
did a search in my defined names list they do not exist, I did i search in my
formulas and the search text was not found, I even went into my macros and
checked the sheet modules that were being copied, but the text was not even
found there. Anybody know why this might be happening. NOTE: This only
started happening when i made the sheet modules Option Explicit

try running this code

sub ShowNames()
On error goto 0
msgbox "Shoes: " & Activeworkbook.Names("shoes").RefersTo
msgbox "vc: " & activeworkbook.Names("vc").Refersto
msgbox "bags: " & activeworkbook.Names("bags").Refersto
On Error goto 0
End Sub

Tom,
Ran the code the results as follows:
Shoes - Sheet1$a$1:R0C0
VC - Sheet1$ew$757:R0C0
bags - Sheet1$a$1:R0C0

my interpritation of that is that they really don't exist, but of course i
could be easily wrong on that???

of course I was wrong I just forced delete of the names through code (since I
don't need them) and everything is peachy now. Thanks Tom

The definitely exists

Run this

sub MakeNamesVisible()
On error goto 0
Activeworkbook.Names("shoes").Visible = True
Activeworkbook.Names("vc").Visible = True
Activeworkbook.Names("bags").Visible = True
On Error goto 0
End Sub

Then you should be able to see them in Insert=Names=Define

sub MakeNamesGone()
On error goto 0
Activeworkbook.Names("shoes").Delete
Activeworkbook.Names("vc").Delete
Activeworkbook.Names("bags").Delete
On Error goto 0
End Sub

May work to get rid of them if that is what you want. Sometimes names can
be resistant to being deleted.

that's interesting I was not aware names could be invisible.
