I'm trying to copy rows from one worksheet to a new worksheet while keeping the formatting (column widths etc..) of the active worksheet. I'm getting a "Run-time error '438': Object doesn't support this property type or method". How can I fix this code to copy the active sheet formats to the new sheet. Thank you.

Code:
Private Sub cmdCSV_Click()
    Dim lastrow As Long, i As Long, erow As Long
    Dim sheetdate As Date, startdate As Date, enddate As Date
    Dim wb As Workbook
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    
    Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("TGT")
    Set wb = Workbooks.Add
        
        ws.Cells.Copy
       [COLOR=#FF0000] With wb.Cells 'this is where the error occurs[/COLOR]
            .PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteColumnWidths
            .PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats
            Application.CutCopyMode = False
        End With
   
    startdate = Me.DTPicker1.Value
    enddate = Me.DTPicker2.Value
    lastrow = ws.UsedRange.Rows.Count
    For i = 2 To lastrow
        sheetdate = ws.Cells(3, 2).Value
        If sheetdate >= startdate And sheetdate <= enddate Then
        ws.Range(ws.Cells(i, 1), ws.Cells(i, 15)).Copy Destination:=wb.Worksheets("sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1)
        End If
    Next i
End Sub

Finally, that works Fluff. Thank you an million and many kudo's for sticking with me. I'm not even going to ask how to do the same thing, but make is a pdf. Here is the final code in case it can help someone else:

Code:
Private Sub cmdCSV_Click()
    Dim lastrow As Long, i As Long, erow As Long
    Dim sheetdate As Date, startdate As Date, enddate As Date
    Dim wb As Workbook
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    
    Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("TGT")
    Set wb = Workbooks.Add
        
    ws.Range("A2:O2").Copy wb.Worksheets("sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1)
    
        ws.Cells.Copy
        With wb.Sheets(1).Cells
            .PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteColumnWidths
            .PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats
            Application.CutCopyMode = False
        End With
   
    startdate = Me.DTPicker1.Value
    enddate = Me.DTPicker2.Value
    lastrow = ws.UsedRange.Rows.Count
    For i = 3 To lastrow
        sheetdate = ws.Cells(i, 2).Value
        If sheetdate >= startdate And sheetdate <= enddate Then
            ws.Range(ws.Cells(i, 1), ws.Cells(i, 15)).Copy Destination:=wb.Worksheets("sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1)
        End If
   Next i
    wb.SaveAs ThisWorkbook.Path & "\Target Log " & Format(enddate, "mm-dd-yyyy") & ".xlsm", 52
End Sub

Fluff, Thank you again.
