How to: Programmatically Copy Worksheets

Article
04/28/2015

You can create a copy of a worksheet, and insert that worksheet before or after an existing worksheet in the workbook. If you do not specify where to insert the worksheet, Excel creates a new workbook to contain the new worksheet.

Applies to: The information in this topic applies to document-level projects and application-level projects for Excel 2013 and Excel 2010. For more information, see Features Available by Office Application and Project Type.

Note

Whether you copy the worksheet programmatically, or the end user copies the worksheet manually, there is no code behind the new worksheet and controls on the new worksheet do not function. This is because the newly copied worksheet is a Worksheet object and not a Worksheet host item. Windows Forms controls and host controls can only be added to host items. For more information, see Programmatic Limitations of Host Items and Host Controls.

To add a copied worksheet to a workbook in a document-level customization

Use the Copy method to copy the first worksheet in the current workbook and place the copy after the third sheet.

Globals.Sheet1.Copy(After:=Globals.ThisWorkbook.Sheets(3))

Globals.Sheet1.Copy(Globals.ThisWorkbook.Sheets[3]);

To add a copied worksheet to a workbook in an application-level add-in

Use the Copy method to copy the first worksheet in the current workbook and place the copy after the third sheet.

Dim worksheet1 As Excel.Worksheet = CType(Application.ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(1),  _
Excel.Worksheet)
Dim worksheet3 As Excel.Worksheet = CType(Application.ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(3),  _
Excel.Worksheet)
worksheet1.Copy(After:=worksheet3)

Excel.Worksheet worksheet1 = ((Excel.Worksheet)Application.ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets[1]);
Excel.Worksheet worksheet3 = ((Excel.Worksheet)Application.ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets[3]);
worksheet1.Copy(worksheet3);
