Morning all.

I ideally need to take a specific sheet from a specific document and copy it's entire contents, formatting, filters etc into a new xls such that when i open the new xls it will get all the data once more from the original sheet.

I know that you could simply set the new xls to copy it over on a cell by cell basis (such as "='[original.xlsm]Sheet1'!G29" in cell G29 of the new sheet etc) but this doesn't copy over all the filters and formatting.

Is it even possible to do this?

Thanks in advance

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
^^ yes.

However I think i'm going to close this thread and start a new one as I want to look at approaching this a different way now..

Thanks to all who have helped
