    How to Duplicate workbook to be a template or new year workbook

    Hello

    My supervisor sent me an excel file with 12 months of numbers and formulas in it and wants me to duplicate it without the numbers but to keep the formulas so can have it for next year.

    How to go about that without going sheet to sheet and change the formulas manually.

    I am thinking it should be more generic so each year don't have to do this and will have just a template to use for each year.

    How to go about it?

    Thinking might get more from her and would like to be able to do this with any workbook get.

    You have the advantage of knowing what the workbook, worksheets, formulae and data, etc., look like.

    We don't.

    You could use F5 (Go To) on each sheet, select Special and flag Constants. Then press Delete.

    As to the formulae, who knows how they need adjusting without seeing them. It could be just a Global Replace of a year.
