Copy Multiple Sheets and Rename at One Time

06/05/2010 3:19 PM

Good afternoon:

I am currently working on an excel program for our sales consultant evaluations. What I have are master sheets based on the month. Each sheet has formulas based on the previous months numbers for a 3 month sales average. I have everything set up with a userform so the managers only have to enter information and it will input into the correct sales consultant/month. The problem I have is if we have a new employee, I would like to have a form where the manager can input the new employees name and information and a macro will copy all the master sheets and rename them with the new employees name and the month ie...John Smith Jan, John Smith Feb..ect., so that it matches what I currently have done. I have a code that will copy all the master sheets at one time but I can't figure out how to rename the sheets all at one time, I have found a code that will do it one at a time, but I feel this will be to time consuming for the managers and a bit confusing for some :) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I could probably help you out.. please send me what you have (sheet/program) with sample data. (I'm not out to steal your stuff... so will sign nda if necessary)

but I'm only at ms office 2003. so if you are at 2007, you will have to test to make sure it works (probably will... the other way, not so much.)

If this is a greenfield project, then excel is not the right tool for it. You need to have a database, that can store data in a normalized format and you can draw different relationships between them which can be fetched through queries. If this is an old workflow that has been followed around, then probably it seems that you are copying the templates from one folder to the other, and to rename them all at once you need a "for loop" in the macro which goes in the folder and renames the sheet one by one on its own. Google it , and I am sure you will find some examples.
