I am having trouble addressing a problem with the dreaded "Too Many Cell
Formats" error, when I exceed the 4000 style limit. I am merging multiple workbooks together, which all come from the same template. Thus they all have the same formatting. But when I merge them together into one book, using the Sheet.Copy command in VBA, I end up running into too many cell formats. It seems that the number of duplicate styles is very high. I've tried cleaning up the template to reduce the number of formats. That helped for a while, until I started adding more sheets, which multiplied the number of duplicate styles. Only a handful seem to be named styles, listed on the Styles list as "Normal_Sheet1", "Normal_Sheet2" and so on. But there are thousands more cell formats throughout the workbook that I cannot detect. Is there any better way to copy sheets without bringing all of the styles, or a way to merge the duplicate styles together as I go along? |
