Copying to another Workbook

Dthmtlgod · Apr 23, 2004

I want to copy data from one workbook (many sheets) to another workbook.
I want to do this behind the scenes. Don't want to have the end-user to see
this happening.

I know in FoxPro, using automation, I can visible to False.

Is this possible through VBA?

The following (untested) will copy all the sheets in the active wortkbook to
a new one.

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "c:\..............\NewName.xls"
ActiveWorkbook.Close False
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

To copy to an existing workbook, modify to suit.

Thanks

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

This is the command to keep everything hidden?

For the most part, yes.
