I am trying to set up a custom budget form and would like to copy/paste the formatting for each month without having to format each item. For example, section/page A1 to H12 Is there a way to do this?
Thank you, Jim

The cell formatting is transferred by the standard copy/paste process, so I don't understand your problem. Could you upload a simple example and explain what results you want to achieve in that document?

Doing a task similar to this, I was able to right click on a sheet tab, choose Copy a Sheet, then change my key date at top of the new sheet to the first day of the correct month. I did this for the eleven months remaining in the year after I had set up my first sheet for January.

Thank you FJCC. The solution was too simple and I was overthinking. Fixed easily.
