I have 8 sheets in a workbook and need to copy Column A in worksheet titled Activities in to Column A in all the other sheets and keep the same format from Column A in the Activities sheet to the other sheets.
Thanks for any help.

Excel Facts

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.
Try

Code:
Sub b()
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    With ws
        If .Name <> "Activities" Then Worksheets("Activities").Columns("A").Copy Destination:=.Range("A1")
    End With
Next ws
End Sub

This worked but I need it to copy the formatting and fonts in column A of the activities sheet to all the other sheets and to just copy row A3 to A300 because I have headings in both row A1 & A2.
Thanks,
Dave

Maybe this

Code:
Sub b()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Worksheets("Activities").Range("A3:A300").Copy
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    With ws
        If .Name <> "Activities" Then
            .Range("A3").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValuesAndNumberFormats
            .Range("A3").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats
            .Range("A3").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteColumnWidths
        End If
    End With
Next ws
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End Sub

this works well except t Col A has a Verdana font and size is 8 but when it copies the names to other sheets the font and size say they are the same but they look smaller to me. What do you think might be going on here?
Thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave,

Look at the bottom right of your spreadsheet. Do you see a percentage with a scroll bar?
