This isn't EXACTLY the same problem. In your original post, you were selecting a range from "EMP REG" and then selecting a monthly sheet and running an external macro called Import_fromregister.
In THIS file, all you're doing is copying range B2-O200 of sheet "ITEM MASTER" to each sheet. This should do it: Sub Update_sheets_All() Dim M, ShtName For M = 1 To 12 ShtName = Format(M & "/1/2011", "mmmm") If Sheets(ShtName).Range("b5") = 0 Then Application.ScreenUpdating = False Sheets("ITEM MASTER").Select Range("B2:O200").Select Selection.Copy Sheets(ShtName).Select Range("F2").Select ActiveSheet.Paste End If Next M End Sub Paul ________________________________ From: Rajesh K R <rajeshkainikk...@gmail.com> To: excel-macros@googlegroups.com Sent: Mon, February 14, 2011 9:29:32 AM Subject: Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ reduce the size of code Hi Paul, Thank you very much for your quick replies .Due to my lack of knowledge in vba I can't understand the code well .So I am attaching a project what I am supposed to make which have the same problem. please check the attached file and make necessary change.
