Hi,

I have formed a template that will be used for monthly reviews. Each month has a separate template in a separate sheet to be filled in. First sheet includes a copy of the template and is for January, second sheet includes a copy of the template and is for February, and so on. If I want to redesign the layout of the template, for instance renaming a column, I need to do it manually to each template in every sheet (x12) which is pretty heavy...

My question is, can I design a "master" template in one sheet and make all other sheets refer to this? In other words, if I redesign the "master" template then all changes are automatically applied to all other sheets using it.

Highlight Duplicates
Home, Conditional Formatting, Highlight Cells, Duplicate records, OK to add pink formatting to any duplicates in selected range.
No... and yes.
You only need a Template for one month. Then a Macro to create/Copy that sheet 11 times and name each correctly.
Also, there is a method of selecting all worksheets and editing, which will effect all selected sheets, that may work. Though you definitely must be careful about it.
