Hello I'm trying to add a message box that alerts users that "this workbook has been formated already". For the most part I have a sub routine that formats a user selected workbook, it then adds formatting and lastly makes a new worksheet called "FDM FORMATTED" the problem is users get errors when the workbook already has a sheet named "FDM FORMATTED". I'm trying to see what the best practice is for error handling duplicate worksheets in a workbook? Any thoughts...


Code:
Dim ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet


    'setup
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False


    With wb
        Set ws1 = .ActiveSheet


    On Error Resume Next
    'delete existing
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    .Worksheets("NEW").Delete
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True
    On Error GoTo 0


    'add new
    Set ws2 = Worksheets.Add
    ws2.Name = "FDM FORMATTED"
      
         End With

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.
