Hello everyone,

I’ve code that loops through multiple sheets (sheet names are in date format yyyy.mm.dd) in workbook Test.xlsm and the code is supposed to add new sheet to workbook Results.xlsm and give it the same name. I tried to use shtname = ActiveSheet.Name and DestSh.Name = shtname but as I have to do multiple calculations and manipulations with sheets of both source and destination workbooks, I found it difficult to avoid error messages when the new sheet is being added. Is there any other way to give the same name to the added sheet without using ActiveSheet way? Would be grateful for any help.

Thanks in advance.

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Activesheet referred to sheet in workbook Test? Since you loop through all sheets in workbook Test, then why not just refer the it tot he loop variable instead of Activesheet.

NOt sure if I understood the problem right. Maybe you could show code sample for others to understand better.

Hello Zot,
Thanks for your message.
The code is too long, it includes other macros downloading data from internet, that is why I did not publish it.
Activesheet refers to Test.xlsm, and as it loops through multiple sheets and their name constantly changes I do not know how to refer to it the loop variable.

Just how do you loop through sheets and how you define the part you said the sheet name between two workbooks are the same

I've been able to make it work within one workbook, it adds new sheet with slight modification of the name of the original sheet and then copies data to that sheet. The aim is to add new sheet with identical name to another sheet and copy data there. Please find the code as it follows below.
