    Formatting in Excel

    Can I copy ALL formats from one worksheet to another, especially including
    cell width?

    Re: Formatting in Excel

    If you copy the sheet into the same workbook then all formats will be
    preserved - the easiest way I find is to select the worksheet you want
    to copy, then hold the CTRL key down while you drag the worksheet tab -
    a small black arrow will indicate where the new sheet will be copied
    to, and release CTRL when you have it positioned correctly. A " (2)"
    will be added to the original worksheet's name (or " (3)", or " (4)"
    etc depending how many copies you make).

    Of course, you may need to remove data and formulae from the copied
    sheet.

    Hope this helps.

    If you click on the Select All area (the little grey square to the
    left of ColA and above Row1), then the whole sheet will be selected.
    If you copy and then go to your other sheet, select A1 and Paste
    Special > Formats, then it's done.
