Yay, Dian...finally I get to help YOU LOL
Ok....open the book with the sheet in it that you want to copy into the
other book...then also open the other book....so you have them both open in
Excel at the same time. Then RIGHT click on the sheet tab (at the bottom)
of the sheet you want to copy into the other book and choose "move or
copy"....then a little box comes up and use the dropdown box at the top to
select the other workbook....and, if you want to MOVE it, just click
OK...but if you want to COPY it, put a check in the box that says "create a
copy"
You can also just highlight all the cells in one workbook and copy them and
paste them into another workbook, but then you lose stuff like your sheet
tab names, etc.

Subject: [mso] Excel Newbie Q<g>
Hi folks...
Okay, here's Dian, entering the group as a subscriber and Excel newbie to
ask Qs!<g>
So...we have this Excel timesheet from HELL that the boss forces us to fill
out each week. We have to look all our time and set all the client
billing...blah, blah, blah.
But it appears that, rather than making a master template of sorts
(remember, my only frame of reference here is Word!). So to use each
week...they just take the old one, erase the info and enter the new info.
ARRGGHHH! Not me! I'm gonna learn how to do this RIGHT...if you Excel folks
will help me!
But for today, I don't have time to worry about the template issue, I'll ask
that one later. For now, I'd like to at least take last weeks worksheet (is
that right???) and add a new copy of it into the workbook (is that the right
term????). The boss wants to have ONE book of all my timesheet so tabs at
the bottom would show the dates for each week. What I've been doing to date
is creating a whole new xls each week from a blank one I created.
There is some listboxes and a little bit of formula stuff in here (which
I've REALLY got to improve, quick<g>)...so I'm shy about what I can do with
this.
Appreciate any help adding one sheet into a previous book.
