I am using the following code for 10 sheets in the same workbook. It works,
but it takes about 4 minutes to run. The 10 spreadsheets contain formulas
which I do not want in the final version. I am performing an advance filter
on each sheet and copying this info to another spreadsheet and copying back
values only to the original spreadsheet. Effective, but very time consuming.
I am using Excel 2003. Any suggestions on how to speed this up?


Sheets("sheet1").Select
Range("A1:D3000").AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterInPlace, Unique:=True
Rows("1:3001").Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("CopyWorkSheet").Select
Cells.Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone,
SkipBlanks _
:=True, Transpose:=False
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
On Error Resume Next
ActiveSheet.ShowAllData
On Error GoTo 0
Sheets("CopyWorkSheet").Select
Cells.Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("sheet1").Select

Try adding

Application.Screenupdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationmanual

at the beginning and

Application.Screenupdating = True
Application.Calculation = XLCalculationAutomatic

at the end. If you have any code triggered by events, you'll probably want
to turn that off as well.

Additional to Barb's suggestions which should go a long way to amking things
faster you can remove the slects from your code to add a touch more speed...


with Sheets("sheet1")
.Range("A1:D3000").AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterInPlace, Unique:=True
.Rows("1:3001").Copy
Sheets("CopyWorkSheet").Cells.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
Application.CutCopyMode = False
On Error Resume Next
ActiveSheet.ShowAllData
On Error GoTo 0
Sheets("CopyWorkSheet").Cells.Copy
Sheets("sheet1").Select
End With
