Cannot move or copy sheet to front of large notebook

Once the workbook starts to get many pages I can no longer
move or copy (copy) a sheet to the front of the workbook
to edit to be the next new entry. If I do a (save copy as)
then this works again in the new copy of the workbook. My version is XP 2002
small
business. I do use colored tabs if this matters and there are no
hidden sheets.

You may simply be running up against a memory limitation. If your worksheets
are large, they may be exceeding you RAM. When Excel starts to run out of
memory, it can become do this sort of thing.

Thanks for the idea, I can add some more ram to the desktop and see if this
helps. Any idea why saving a copy of the same workbook would allow me to
continue to add sheets?
