I'm trying to copy a worksheet to another workbook while retaining the color formatting of the ActiveWorkbook.
This is the Code that I'm using which isn't working. Any help appreciated.

Code:
Sub copy_OneWorkSheet()

    Dim wb1 As Workbook
    Dim wb2 As Workbook
    Set wb1 = ActiveWorkbook
    Set wb2 = Workbooks("los_2011.xls").Sheets(2)
   '   Set Color of 1 workbook to another
    'Change the name of the destination workbook here
        wb1.Colors = wb2.Colors
        ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Select
    ActiveSheet.Copy Before:=Workbooks( _
        "July_2011.xls").Sheets(1)
End Sub
