copy to new workbook

[viper]

I've been searching all my favorite boards and am either using the wrong keywords or whatever.

I'm trying to copy one sheet to a new workbook.

I know this is easy to do but I'm hitting errors like crazy. I've tried using this code.

wb = Workbooks.Add
Sheets("Tracking sheet").Copy.UsedRange
wb.Range("A1").Paste

Thanks for any help.

Change this:
Sheets("Tracking sheet").Copy.UsedRange
to this:
Sheets("Tracking sheet").UsedRange.Copy

Try this.

Sheets("Tracking sheet").Copy

It should create a new workbook with only th Tracking Sheet in it.

By the way it would help if we saw the rest of your code.

And an explanation of what you are trying to do.

Thanks for the help. Norie that is basically my code. All I'm trying to do is copy the worksheet into a new workbook and then save the new workbook as trackingsheet.xls. I'm doing this in the workbook_beforeclose event. I have a workbook that the user will use to enter days employee's miss due to late, etc. The workbook is set up to paste the user's name, time of change, and cells changed to the tracking sheet. I only want to save the tracking sheet as a reference for all the changes.

So I guess for the entire code I'm trying to write is to copy the worksheet into a new workbook (overwrite each time), and then save the workbook as noted above.

Thanks for the help on this. I now have it working as I want and the complete code is listed below. I was running into trouble coping a hidden worksheet.

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
   'turn off alerts
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
   'unhide sheet to copy
    Sheets("Tracking sheet").Visible = xlSheetVisible
   'copy worksheet
    Sheets("Tracking sheet").Copy
   'save new workbook under new name
    ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "trackingsheet.xls"
   'save new workbook
    ActiveWorkbook.Close savechanges = True
   're-hide worksheet
    Sheets("Tracking sheet").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
   'save primary workbook
    ActiveWorkbook.Save
    
End Sub

Thanks for all the help.
