Dear group,

I want to rename styles using VBA.
I do this by creating a new style-object and copying all properties from the
old style to the new one.
Then I assign the new style to the cells and delete the old style.
Problem: It is working, but with bigger workbooks it is very slowly.
Am I thinking too complicated? The code ist listed below.

Thanks in advance, Holger.
