    Sheets(Array).Copy Dynamically

    Hi all,

    i've hit a bit of a mental wall (been programming too many hours striaght) and cannot figure out how to do the following.

    I have a sheet array sh_array(3)
    of which all the slots may not contain data, but i want to turn it into the statement

    Sheets(Array("sheet1", "sheet2", etc, etc).Copy

    however as all the items in the sh_array may not be occupied i cannot simply do this

    Sheets(sh_array(0), sh_array(1), sh_array(2), sh_array(3)).Copy

    as it hits the subscription out of range if one of the items is a null.

    so say only sh_array() slots 0 and 1 contain data

    how do i dynamically turn it into the statement

    Sheets(sh_array(0), sh_array(1)).Copy

    as so forth if more/less elements of the sh_array are full.

    I thought about a if statement testing the sh_array length but there must be a better way to do it.

    Thanks

    Jon

    Why not create a new temporary array with only valid sheet names?

    i could but as i want the sheets selected and copied together how would i produce the statement even if i knew the exact array size. this is the dynamic statement i'm after:

    Sheets(New_Array(0), ..... , to New_Array(i)).Copy

    without running a loop statement? (which would only copy the sheets individually anyway.

    Something like this. which simply selects sheet1 and sheet3 in the active workbook.
