The following code works when I manually create a new worksheet, but
not when one is created from another code. Any way I can set this to
work for every instance a sheet is created regardless of whether
manual or automatically created?



Private Sub Workbook_newsheet(ByVal Sh As Object)

Sheets("Ind Templates").Range("A1:f13").Copy Sh.Range("a1")

End Sub

The code works for me when I add a new sheet via code.

Any chance that you turned off events before your code got to the portion that
added the sheet?

I didn't take the time to set up a workbook to do all this.

Do you get any hints when you step through the code?

I skimmed through the code again.

This portion:

With Application
CalcMode = .Calculation
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
.ScreenUpdating = False
.EnableEvents = False
End With

That ".enableevents = false" stops any events from firing.

Try commenting that line.

Ron de Bruin added that line (and the other lines) to help speed up the
process. You don't want that to happen (I think).
