Hi,
It makes perfect sense. To make a change on any sheet and have it replicated through many other sheets you need to GROUP the sheets. i.e. select a sheet tab name, hold the Ctrl Key down and then select them. That may be a bit of a pain to do manually so the following macro would do it for you
However and assuming this is a new development and before going too far down the line with it I'd seriously question why you want to have 100 different sheet tabs. Particularly if any data analysis or reporting across all sheets is needed. I've lost track of the number of times I've seen people use well crafted, colourfully formatted and wizzy sheets just for capturing data and then realising they can't get the summary information they need.
Don't mix up the two elements of data capture and final reporting. The two require quite different treatments.
A lot of people start by designing the form that they expect to see as the final report, and then wonder why it's so difficult to subsequently analyse and summarise or extract information from it. You should always capture data in a simple two dimensional table and worry about reporting information from it afterwards. Without exception doing this you will always be able to easily obtain management information. Rarely is this the case if you start the other way round. You will also throw open the whole wonderful world of the powerful Pivot table functionality.
So create a single database sheet that will hold all the information for all your 100 sheets. Then it will be a simple matter to extract a subset of information from the database to a reporting template.
