Duplicating a sheet across multiple workbooks using VBA involves scripting to open each target workbook, copy the desired sheet from a source workbook, and paste it into each of the target workbooks. Below is a step-by-step guide with an example VBA macro to achieve this:
Preparation
- Ensure all workbooks are closed except the source workbook where the sheet to be duplicated is located.
- List all target workbooks in a specific folder to avoid manual selection errors.
Example VBA Macro
Sub DuplicateSheetAcrossWorkbooks()
Dim sourceWorkbook As Workbook
Dim targetWorkbook As Workbook
Dim shtToCopy As Worksheet
Dim targetFolderPath As String
Dim fileName As String
Dim filePath As String
' Define the source workbook and the sheet to copy
Set sourceWorkbook = ThisWorkbook ' Assuming the macro is in the source workbook
Set shtToCopy = sourceWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1") ' Change "Sheet1" to the sheet name you wish to copy
' Define the target folder containing workbooks
targetFolderPath = "C:PathToYourWorkbooks" ' Change this to your folder path
