The sheet before which the copied sheet will be placed. You cannot specify Before if you specify After.

Examples
The following code example uses the Copy method to create copies of the current worksheet before Sheet1 and after Sheet3. The example uses the InnerObject property to access the underlying Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet for Sheet1 and Sheet3.
This example is for a document-level customization.
Private Sub CopyWorksheet()
' Copy this worksheet before Sheet1.
Me.Copy(Globals.Sheet1.InnerObject)
' Copy this worksheet after Sheet3.
Me.Copy(After:=Globals.Sheet3.InnerObject)
End Sub
private void CopyWorksheet()
{
// Copy this worksheet before Sheet1.
this.Copy(Globals.Sheet1.InnerObject, missing);
// Copy this worksheet after Sheet3.
this.Copy(missing, Globals.Sheet3.InnerObject);
}
