Is that a "1" or an "i"?  could be a typo?

Gustav and Max

Reporting back ...
I have since done a debug.print on each component of the
failing line, as follows

   Debug.Print Workbooks(WorkbookName).Sheets(i).Name   ' OK
   Debug.Print Workbooks(newFN).Sheets(1).Name          '
fails
    Workbooks(WorkbookName).Sheets(i).Copy _
                     Before:=Workbooks(newFN).Sheets(1)

I have re-tested, changing Sheets to Worksheets, but same
error, same place :-<

I got the syntax from MSKB 288402 (yeah I know, it's Excel
for Mac but danged if I can find PC equivalent on KB)
...  and from other sites which say basically the same thing
(eg
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/isvvba/thread/
0a237cb5-544b-4cf6-b66c-da84a413c2e3/

Max, that technique of copying before Sheet(1) is
specifically mentioned in 288402

Hi Stephen and Max

I've learned that you should use WorkSheet for Sheet when
dealing with WorkSheets.

Is this :-

Sheets(i).Copy _
                     Before:=Workbooks(newFN).Sheets(1)   

Saying:-


Copy from sheet (i) to new work sheet and position before
.Sheets(1)?

Can you do that?  Is there anything before sheet(1) Or have
I misunderstood
