I have a macro which copies time sheets from the old/current sheet to a new
sheet.

I haave found that headers and other formating aspects of the sheet such as
row width and the page scaling is not maitained in the new sheet.

Is there a simple way of achieving this without resorting to using excels
macro recording facility?

It sounds like you're creating a new sheet, then copying the data from the other
sheet.

How about copying the original sheet.

Record a macro when you do:
edit|Move or copy sheet (check copy)

and you'll see the code.

Hi Dave,

I was originally copying the entire sheet but it was slowish process, so I
then only copied the cell I needed. That's when I found that headers and
formating were not copying to the new sheet. Hence my request for assistance.

I just checked my previous macro that copied and moved the "old" sheet, but I
found that it wasn't carrying over the header and footer nor the page setup
properties such as layout.

Copy|pastespecial|formats
Copy|pastespecial|columnwidths (xl2k and higher)

And you'll have to copy the headers/footers, too:

With newworksheethere.PageSetup
.LeftHeader = oldworksheethere.pagesetup.leftheader
.CenterHeader = oldworksheethere.pagesetup.centerheader
'and so on...
End with

You may find copying the worksheet is easier.

I find that using:

dim newSheetName as string
then
worksheets(newsheetname).name = ....
worksheets(newsheetname).range("a99").value = ....
clumsy to work with.

Instead of using a string variable to hold the name of the worksheet, you can
use a worksheet variable to hold a reference to that worksheet.

Dim NewSheet as worksheet
then
newsheet.name = ....
newsheet.range("a99").value = ....
easier to use and easier to understand.

This compiled and ran for me. I _think_ it does what you want, but you'll have
to test it to make sure.

Then your old macro wasn't copying the sheet--or something else was changing the

Hi again Jorge,

I have re-entered the discussion on this. Dave had a good suggestion in one
of his previous posts on this thread about copying the sheet instead of
adding a sheet and then copying the data and he is quite right because this
works better in that it copies everything about the sheet including print
setups, freeze panes etc. I also assume that you have some cells in the
worksheet which are not protected otherwise the users would not be able to
enter any data and the copy sheet looks after this also. Therefore I have
added yet another version for you by modifying Dave's code.

I have gained something from your info Dave so thanks for that.

I find that using:

then
worksheets(newsheetname).name = ....
worksheets(newsheetname).range("a99").value = ....
clumsy to work with.

Instead of using a string variable to hold the name of the worksheet, you can
use a worksheet variable to hold a reference to that worksheet.

Dim NewSheet as worksheet
then
newsheet.name = ....
newsheet.range("a99").value = ....
easier to use and easier to understand.

You may find copying the worksheet is easier.

Hi Dave,

I was originally copying the entire sheet but it was slowish process, so I
then only copied the cell I needed. That's when I found that headers and
formating were not copying to the new sheet. Hence my request for assistance.

Jorge

It sounds like you're creating a new sheet, then copying the data from the other
sheet.

How about copying the original sheet.

Record a macro when you do:
edit|Move or copy sheet (check copy)

and you'll see the code.

I have a macro which copies time sheets from the old/current sheet to a new

I haave found that headers and other formating aspects of the sheet such as
row width and the page scaling is not maitained in the new sheet.

Is there a simple way of achieving this without resorting to using excels
macro recording facility?

I recorded a macro and here is what I got

Sub Macro5()
'
' Macro5 Macro
'

'
Sheets("Current Loan Analysis").Select
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Sheets("Current Loan Analysis").Select
ActiveSheet.Buttons.Add(1082.25, 34.5, 125.25, 80.25).Select
Sheets("Current Loan Analysis").Copy After:=Sheets(2)
Sheets("Current Loan Analysis (2)").Select
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True
Sheets("Current Loan Analysis").Select
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=False, Contents:=True, Scenarios:= _
False
Range("J1").Select
End Sub

The problem is - Sheets("Current Loan Analysis").Copy After:=Sheets(2)

next time there will be more sheets. I just want it added to the end. Also
I want to include the macro button that runs this macro. Will this work?
