I have a form on a single worksheet. I would like to run a macro
that replicates the sheet for each day of a month and uses each
day's date as a sheet tab label (format: Monday 05/21/07) and puts
that date on the sheet.

This procedure will do it. Note that the sheet name format uses "-" instead
of "/", because slashes are not allowed in a sheet name. Call it like this:

AddSheets Now

or if cell A1 in the active sheet contains a date

AddSheets ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Value

Sub AddSheets(MyDate As Date)
Dim iDate As Date

For iDate = DateSerial(Year(MyDate), Month(MyDate), 1) To
DateSerial(Year(MyDate), Month(MyDate) + 1, 0)
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
After:=ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(ActiveWorkbook.Sheets .Count)
With ActiveSheet
With .Range("A1")
.Value = iDate
.NumberFormat = "dddd mm/dd/yy"
End With
.Name = Format(iDate, "dddd mm-dd-yy")
End With
Next
End Sub

The procedure will crash if it encounters a duplicate sheet name.

Just some added information:
to replicate a template sheet as I believe you said you wished to do, change


ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
After:=ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(ActiveWorkbook.Sheets .Count)

to

With ActiveWorkbook
.Worksheets("Template").copy After:= _
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(ActiveWorkbook.Sheets.Count)
End With

Change template to reflect the name of your "form" sheet.

Thanks for the code. I have created the procedure but for some reason
I cannot see it from the worksheet. It won't even run from the code
module when I press F5. The Macro dialog box appears and when I enter
the name of the macro it starts a module to create it. What gives?

The macro starts as

Sub AddSheets(MyDate As Date)

which means you must enter a date. This gives you the flexibility of
creating next months sheets ahead of time, or backtracking and creating a
previous month's sheets. As I said in my initial post

Call it like this:

AddSheets Now

or if cell A1 in the active sheet contains a date

AddSheets ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Value

Either of these lines that call the sub can be inserted into an existing VBA
procedure or run from the Immediate Window.

Thanks very much to Jon and Tom. Problem solved. I learned something
very important here. I had been told before that a procedure that
takes an argument won't show up in the Macro list but could be run by
typing its name in the Macro dialog box or by assigning it to a
command button (how if it doesn't show?) - neither of which worked for
me. It seems that such a procedure has to be called from another
procedure (which can be assigned to a button). I couldn't run it from
the Immediate window either, though. Thanks again for the help.

What error came up when you tried it from the Immediate Window?
