Hello

When I try to copy a sheet I get the following error, which no matter what I click, does not go away (it actually generates tons of such messages with different name)

Any idea please?

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
No it's not a "Bug"
You have named ranges on the sheet which are set to workbook scope and you can only have one instance of a workbook scoped name.

Press Ctrl+F3 and check what ranges you've already named are in use.

I clicked CTRL+F3 and I deleted all the names but it still does it!

It happens when I select and drag and drop a sheet's tab.

I have no idea is it on about, I have never specified the names it displays.

How do I fix that?

It maybe that the names are hidden, try this
Code:
Sub excelos()
   Dim Nme As Name

   For Each Nme In ActiveWorkbook.Names
      Nme.Visible = True
   Next Nme
End Sub
Then go back into the name manager & delete the name
