Hi there,

For the code given i dont see any declarations of something being copied or
pasted.
You may want to look into that first and see what happens from there. If you
need help with the copy segment then feel free to ask

Figured it out i forgot to write to save the file before closing.

But still need to know if it is possible to update the size of defined lists
from one source to another.

Great,

Was going to ask that question next and maybe suggest you save with the
below statement..

Activeworkbook.Save

Hi

I cleaned up your original code, as you have many steps not needed.

BTW: I don't think it's nessecary to turn off alerts if you save the
workbook before it's closed.

Look at this:

Sub UpdateDensities()
Dim ThisWb As Workbook
Dim dbWB As Workbook

Set ThisWb = ActiveWorkbook
'Copy this section changing fluid database name for open and close,
' Open the database.
Set dbWB = Workbooks.Open("G:\Drilling Fluids Technology\Fluids
Database\FluidDatabaseTemplate.xls")

'Copy and Paste Section
ThisWb.Sheets("Densities").Columns("A:M").Copy

With dbWB.Sheets("Densities")
.Unprotect Password:="baker"
.Sheets("Densities").Columns("H:M").Hidden = False
.Columns("A:M").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteAll, Operation:=xlNone,
SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False
.Columns("H:M").Hidden = True
.Protect Password:="baker"
End With

ThisWb.Sheets("Extras").Select 'Only required if another sheet is active
when this macro is started!

'Close Workbook
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
dbWB.SaveAs '<=== enter path and filename here
dbWB.Close
Application .DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

this approach may work:

Sub UpdateDensities()
Dim TPFile As String
Dim TPWB As Workbook
Dim ThisWKB As Workbook
Dim r1 As Range, r2 As Range

Set ThisWKB = ThisWorkbook

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

TPFile = "G:\Drilling Fluids Technology\Fluids
Database\FluidDatabaseTemplate.xls "

' Open the database.
Set TPWB = Workbooks.Open(TPFile, ReadOnly:=False, Password:="")

'set 1st range to copy
Set r1 = ThisWKB.Worksheets("Densities").Columns("A:M")

With TPWB.Worksheets("Densities")
.Unprotect Password:="baker"

'set 2nd range to paste to
Set r2 = .Columns("A:M")

'copy & paste
r1.Copy r2

.Columns("H:M").Hidden = True

.Protect Password:="baker"
End With

'close & save
TPWB.Close True

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
