    Question autofit doesn't work when new sheet created?

    Hi

    I have code that I've reused from another macro. I'm copying information from one tab, creating a new workbook, pasting in there, saving that new workbook and closing.

    Within the course of the code, I also ensure that I autofit the rows so we can see all the text.

    When I "watch" the code run, the autofit works. However, when the new Workbook saves and closes, the lines resize smaller?? This doesn't happen in the original code.. I run it and it works fine, the autofit stays.

    I've tried placing the autofit code at different places.. nothing helps...

    Hope you have some ideas!
