Hi, Is possible to copy a hidden sheet from one workbook to another without unhiding the hidden sheet? I have been looking for a solution to this but can't seem to come up with anything without unhiding, copying then hiding the sheet. Can someone help with this please
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
No. What's wrong with doing what you describe?

No, you can't copy a hidden sheet.

If you just don't want the user to see the hidden sheet, you could Hide the entire workbook, unhide the sheet, copy it , hide the sheet back and then unhide the workbook.

something like this :
Code:
Sub Test()
    ThisWorkbook.Windows(1).Visible = False
    Sheet1.Visible = xlSheetVisible
    Sheet1.Copy
    Sheet1.Visible = xlSheetHidden
    ThisWorkbook.Windows(1).Visible = True
End Sub
