Artikel
03/30/2022

Copies the sheet to another location in the current workbook or a new workbook.

Syntax

expression.Copy (Before, After)

expression A variable that represents a Worksheet object.

Parameters

Name	Required/Optional	Data type	Description
Before	Optional	Variant	The sheet before which the copied sheet will be placed. You cannot specify Before if you specify After.
After	Optional	Variant	The sheet after which the copied sheet will be placed. You cannot specify After if you specify Before.

Remarks

If you don't specify either Before or After, Microsoft Excel creates a new workbook that contains the copied Worksheet object. The newly created workbook holds the Application.ActiveWorkbook property and contains a single worksheet. The single worksheet retains the Name and CodeName properties of the source worksheet. If the copied worksheet held a worksheet code sheet in a VBA project, that is also carried into the new workbook.

An array selection of multiple worksheets can be copied to a new blank Workbook object in a similar manner.

Source and Destination must be in the same Excel.Application instance, otherwise it will raise a runtime error '1004': No such interface supported, if something like Sheet1.Copy objWb.Sheets(1) was used, or a runtime error '1004': Copy method of Worksheet class failed, if something like ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Copy objWb.Sheets(1) was used.

Example

This example copies Sheet1, placing the copy after Sheet3.

Worksheets("Sheet1").Copy After:=Worksheets("Sheet3")

This example first copies Sheet1 to a new blank workbook, and then saves and closes the new workbook.

Worksheets("Sheet1").Copy
With ActiveWorkbook 
     .SaveAs Filename:=Environ("TEMP") & "\New1.xlsx", FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook
     .Close SaveChanges:=False
End With

This example copies worksheets Sheet1, Sheet2, and Sheet4 to a new blank workbook, and then saves and closes the new workbook.

Worksheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet4")).Copy
With ActiveWorkbook
     .SaveAs Filename:=Environ("TEMP") & "\New3.xlsx", FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook 
     .Close SaveChanges:=False 
End With
